Bombing has unfortunately been used as a weapon of racial violence and intimidation in Black history. One of the most notorious instances of bombing targeting the Black community was the 16th Street Baptist Church bombing in Birmingham, Alabama on September 15, 1963. The bombing, carried out by white supremacists, killed four young African American girls and shocked the nation, bringing greater attention to the Civil Rights Movement.

In addition to this infamous incident, there have been numerous other bombings targeting Black individuals, communities, and organizations throughout history as a means of racial terror and discrimination. These acts of violence were often perpetrated by white supremacist groups seeking to intimidate and oppress African Americans.

Despite the dangers and threats posed by such acts, the Black community has shown resilience and courage in the face of violence. Activists and leaders have continued to fight for justice and equality, advocating for change and standing up against racial violence and hatred.
