Synopsis "Bombingham: Day of Reckoning"
Bombingham became the shameful moniker used by the national media for Birmingham, Alabama during the Civil Rights movement of the mid-twentieth century. In the span of three years more than fifty bombs exploded throughout the city in churches, homes and gathering places of the civil rights organizers. Fifty years later the Civil Rights district in downtown is now designated as a National Monument and attracts tourists from around the world. The city is recognized as a progressive, peaceful modern city that uses its ugly past to teach tolerance and promote inclusiveness.On a quite Sunday morning as preparations were underway to celebrate the fifty-eighth anniversary of the most horrific of those bombs at the Sixteenth Street Baptist Church, where four young girls were killed and many others injured, Birmingham is suddenly thrust back into chaos under a threat that has not been seen since the days of the struggle for civil rights. Lt. Fay Findlay and the Special Crimes Unit of the Birmingham Police Department team with the FBI and other federal agencies in a frantic race to quell the threat to not only save the city but the entire nation from a radical domestic terrorist organization that has been planning and preparing for decades. My hope is that the fictional story portrayed in this book causes the reader to think and consider the consequences of not only our prejudices, but also our indifference. We all bear a responsibility to not only not be a racist, but we must work tirelessly to be anti-racist by speaking out when we see hate and injustice anywhere. We must all work to do our part to love our neighbor, regardless of their skin color, lifestyle, or economic standing. Lastly, we must all be students of our history and work to make sure that the mistakes of our past and even those of our ancestors are never repeated.
