By Sym Posey | The Birmingham TimesIt was an evening of reflection as The Birmingham Bar Association hosted a forum honoring survivors of the 16th Street Baptist Church bombing, and marking the 62nd anniversary of the attack that killed four young girls. The program, moderated by Gaile Pugh Gratton Greene, a shareholder at Sirote & Permutt, P.C., heard Lowe and McNair shared stories detailing how the act of racial violence affected their lives. Lowe was in the church the day it was bombed on Sept. 15, 1963. It changed what I was going to become,” said Lowe, Bishop and Senior Pastor at Guiding Light Church in Birmingham. “I think unity is a quest for sure, but I think civility, engagement, and respect for your fellow man — I think that’s the bigger message, that’s the most important thing front and center right now,” he said.
