Recently, IUSB’s student paper The Preface published an article about one of the many events from last week that took place in South Bend, Indiana to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Birmingham Church Bombing in 1963.

Diane Braddock, a sister of one of the girls killed in the bombings, shares her thoughts in a candid discussion.

Also, Notre Dame’s very own Voices of Faith participated in the myriad of weekend events honoring this solemn occassion, performing a number of beautiful songs for all of those gathered.
