This is a good documentary, but since future generations may not know about the church bombing, I would have liked it to focus more on the events of that day. The interviews with family and friends who knew the four girls makes history very real. Interviews with some of those who were politically powerful at the time, gives both sides a voice. (too bad Wallace's male nurse wasn't interviewed after Wallace called him his dear friend) Some of the civil rights leaders say that the event was pivotal in putting the civil rights movement in the national spotlight, but I think it was 'the last straw' in an escalating series of atrocities.
