Addie Mae Collins
15 Sep 1963
Birmingham, AL
Addie Mae Collins, 14, was a quiet, serious student from a large family. She and her sister Sarah Jean were combing their hair after Sunday school at the Sixteenth Street Baptist Church when a Ku Klux Klan bomb exploded, killing Addie Mae and three other girls.
Sarah Jean was blinded in one eye. |
