September 15, 1963, should have been a typical Sunday at the Sixteenth Street Baptist Church in Birmingham, Alabama. In the church basement, children busily prepared for youth Sunday. Five little girls, ranging in age from 11 to 14, were in the women's bathroom, changing into choir robes and fixing their hair when an explosion rocked the church. Glass shattered. The church's rear wall crumbled. The girls flew through the air. Upstairs, the adults panicked. They ran for their children. Four little girls died that day. There wasn't much of a question as to who'd done this. For years, the KKK had bombed Black churches and Black people's homes. They'd done so with little to no punishment from authorities. But surely they wouldn't get away with killing children in church. And now for a note about our process. For this episode, Kristin read a bunch of articles, then spat them back out in her very limited vocabulary. We owe a huge debt of gratitude to the real experts who covered these cases. In this episode, Kristin pulled from: “The Birmingham Church Bombing: Bombingham,” by Mark Gado for Crime Library “Trial of bombing suspect begins,” by Jay Reeves for the Associated Press “Alabamian guilty in ‘63 church blast that killed 4 girls,” by B. Drummond Ayres Jr. for the New York Times “Chambliss guilty,” Associated Press “Birmingham bomber Bobby Frank Cherry dies in prison at 74,” by Yvonne Shinhoster Lamb for the Washington Post “Birmingham bomb case goes to jury,” by Howell Raines for the St Petersburg Times “Ghosts of Alabama: The prosecution of Bobby Frank Cherry for the bombing of the Sixteenth Street Baptist Church,” by Donald Q. Cochran for the Michigan Journal of Race and Law “60 years ago, Alabama church bombing killed 4 girls and catalyzed a movement,” by DeNeen L. Brown for the Washington Post “Congress honors victims of infamous Alabama church bombing,” by Debbie Elliott for NPR “50 years after the bombing, Birmingham still subtly divided,” by Debbie Elliott for NPR “Alabama Gov. apologizes to surviving ‘5th girl' of 1963 KKK bombing,” by Vanessa Romo for NPR “16th Street Baptist Church bombing,” National Park Service “16th Street Baptist Church bombing,” entry on Wikipedia YOU'RE STILL READING?

In part three of three, Amanda explores fast fashion 1.0 and 3.0 through the lens of her career: How the industry uses things like #Girlboss, feminist tees, and cause marketing to sell you more stuff. When fast fashion becomes desperate and starts embracing greenwashing and new revenue streams like rental and resale. WTF is the de minimus rule and how is it benefitting fast fashion 3.0? We'll be talking a lot about Shein and its peers.Additional reading:"After Months of Reported Dysfunction, Nasty Gal Lays Off 19 Employees," Anna Merlan, Jezebel."'Everything Really Hit Rock Bottom': How Nasty Gal's Culture Went Nasty," Anna Merlan, Jezebel."How ModCloth Strayed From Its Feminist Beginnings and Ended Up a Walmart Property," Anna Merlan, Jezebel."After reconsidering free returns, fashion brands get creative," Maliha Shoaib, Vogue Business."Urban Outfitters Cannot Escape Le Tote's Trade Secret Claims Over 'Copycat' Rental Biz," The Fashion Law."Packages From China Are Surging Into US; Some Say $800 Duty-Free Limit Was Mistake," Associated Press."Shein invited influencers on an all-expenses-paid trip.

LAWMAKERS OK INCENTIVE PACKAGE TO LURE AMAZON A corporate-tax incentive package intended to entice Amazon to build its new headquarters in Newark won final approval in the Legislature on Monday and has been sent to Gov. Chris Christie for his signature, John Reitmeyer reports for NJ Spotlight. The governor is expected to sign the measure, which would provide per-job tax credits worth as much as $10,000 annually to any company that is willing to hire at least 30,000 employees and invest at least $3 billion in a corporate headquarters in New Jersey. Amazon, based in Seattle, is looking for a place to build a second corporate headquarters that could employ as many as 50,000 employees. 6,800 SALVADORANS IN NJ MUST LEAVE BY SEPTEMBER 2019 The ending of a humanitarian program for Salvadoran immigrants will require 6,800 people who have lived and worked legally in New Jersey for the past 17 years to leave by September 2019. The ending of the program, called Temporary Protected Status for Salvadorans, affects 260,000 nationwide, Monsy Alvarado writes for The Record. Those who stay after the deadline will be considered undocumented immigrants and will be eligible for deportation. CORRECTIONS DEPARTMENT REVERSES BAN ON BOOK The state Department of Corrections has lifted a ban on the book “The New Jim Crow: Mass Incarceration in the Age of Colorblindness” at two prisons, Vanessa Romo reports for NPR. The ban was lifted after the American Civil Liberties Union sent a letter demanding that the book, which discusses the racial disparity in prisons, be available to inmates. LEGISLATURE PASSES BILL STRIPPING NJSPCA OF POLICE POWERS The Assembly passed a measure Monday that would turn over enforcement of animal cruelty laws to local police and county prosecutors and remove police powers from the New Jersey Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, S.P. Sullivan reports for NJ.com. The measure, which won approval in the Senate in December, goes to Gov. Chris Christie for his signature. The NJSPCA was sharply criticized in October in a report by the State Commission of Investigation, which said the society was run by “gun-carrying wannabe cops.” MAN CHARGED WITH CRASHING POLICE SUV INTO HOBOKEN TERMINAL Law-enforcement authorities have ruled out terrorism in an incident Monday in which a 46-year-old man allegedly stole an NJ Transit Police SUV and crashed it into the door of the Hoboken Terminal train station, News 12 reports. Santiago Brito-Avalos is accused of arriving at the station by train, walking into a restricted area and stealing the vehicle before crashing it into the terminal.
