- Description
- Text transcribed from caption: Suggested for use in connection with Brotherhood Week, Feb. 20-27 PC-49290 SIGNS OF THE PAST Like the Birmingham, Alabama, store they are located on, “colored” and “white” entrances have been abandoned in this country. But signs of the recent past such as these still remain to remind Americans that there is a long way to go towards achieving mutual respect. Brotherhood Week, a program of the National Conference of Christians and Jews in cooperation with schools, churches and synagogues, civic, service and community organizations, serves to remind us that “Brotherhood Begins with Respect.” Brotherhood Week will be observed for the 44th time from Feb. 20-27.

- Text transcribed from caption: PC-29887 BODY REMOVED FROM BOMBED BIRMINGHAM CHURCH BIRMINGHAM, Ala. -- The body of one of four young Negro girls killed in the bombing of 16th Street Baptist church in Birmingham, Ala., is removed from the shattered basement. The youngsters, one 11 and three 14 years old, were studying their Sunday school lesson on the subject, “The Love That Forgives,” when explosions ripped through the church. A rope-barricade and armed troopers held a gathering crowd away from the blast area. Outraged Negroes ultimately heeded pleas by the pastor of the church, the Rev. John Cross, to disperse. From across the nation, religious leaders urged action to prevent further violence in racially-tense Birmingham. Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO (W-NY-9C-63-NBM)
