        Their lives mattered then. I was their age in '63. Their spirits have helped move Alabama into the sunshine.

        I was also their age and in Baptist Sunday School that day. My white, Republican mother was so outraged at this. It was a galvenizing moment. She would ne happy that the prosecutor of these evil men was elected to the US Senate tonight.
