Former critic returns to Birmingham after 1963 church bombing

Charles Morgan, a 1963 vocal critic of Birmingham's racial status quo, returns to speak to the Young Men's Business Club a day after four girls were killed in the 16th Street Baptist Church bombing. He left Alabama soon after and built a national civil rights career with Sears Roebuck and the ACLU, later moving back south to push civil rights in Mississippi and the broader region.
