On the morning of September 15th, 1963, four excited little girls were gathered in front of the mirror in the ladies' lounge of the Sixteenth Street Baptist Church in Birmingham, Alabama, adjusting their dresses and busily preparing for their roles as ushers and choir members at the special 11 a.m. "Youth Day" service. Built in 1911, the Sixteenth Street Baptist Church was an important meeting place for black community leaders who planned peaceful protests there, and hoped not only to integrate Birmingham but to send a strong message to the rest of the country that blacks and whites deserved equal rights. At 10:22 a.m. on that fateful Sunday, a bomb planted under the front steps of the church by members of the Ku Klux Klan hate group exploded, blowing a seven foot whole in the bathroom wall and instantly killing 11-year-old Denise McNair, and 14-year-olds Carole Robertson, Addie Mae Collins, and Cynthia Wesley.
