In addition to the numerous racially motivated bombings that occurred in Birmingham and other cities during the civil rights era, a wave of anti-Semitic bombings occurred across the South. Birmingham historian Sol Kimerling will discuss the 1958 attempt to bomb Birmingham’s Temple Beth-El and examine the responses of the federal government and the local Jewish and non-Jewish communities. Wednesday, May 13, noon.
