The 16th Street Baptist Church in Birmingham, Alabama was bombed as an act of white supremacist terrorism. The explosion at the African-American church, which killed four little girls, marked a turning point in the United States 1960s Civil Rights Movement and contributed to support for passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. “Alabama” is a tribute to the four girls killed in the 16th Street Baptist Church bombing.
