A COMMUNITY RESTORATIVE JUSTICE CAMPAIGN TO BENEFIT SARAH COLLINS RUDOLPH


On September 15, 1963, four members of the Ku Klux Klan planted dynamite inside the 16th Street Baptist Church in Birmingham, Alabama and at about 10:20am, it was detonated. When that dynamite exploded into the history of our nation, it destroyed the lives of four girls, Addie Mae Collins, Denise McNair, Carole Robertson and Cynthia Wesley who were attending Sunday School services. Unknown to many is the fact that there was a 5th little girl, 12-year-old Sarah Collins, who survived the bombing and whose life has been shaped by that trauma ever since.

On September 15, 2023, Nurturing Justice joined in partnership with Join the Movement toward Racial Justice of the United Church of Christ to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the bombing and launch this fundraiser to support survivor Sarah Collins Rudolph.

This virtual symposium can be viewed here: https://www.youtube.com/live/m9KNmFzUnYI?si=G1u6ws...

Through education, skill-building and reparatory justice, we hope to not just honor the past but to equip us to build a future free from racial terror, one where people of African descent cannot only survive, but thrive.

Let us join together to repair our present and create a more just future by making a difference in the life of a woman of tremendous resilience and courage.

Your donations will help to support Sarah! She has never received a penny restitution from the State of Alabama for her injuries and life-long traumas. This is the time for the community to engage in Restorative Justice and respond to her need.
