WAXING OUR LEGS! (feat. Jenna Marbles) + bonus mitch

After serving only 15 years in jail for his part in the 16th Street Baptist Church bombing in Birmingham, Alabama, Thomas E. Blanton Jr. will go before a parole board on August 3.

A petition on Change.org has been started to prevent the KKK member from being released from prison.

Former US attorney Doug Jones, who prosecuted Blanton, will be attending the hearing to make sure the Klansman stays behind bars. Jones says:

“He has shown no remorse. He’s shown no acceptance of responsibility,” Jones said. “He has not reached out to the families or the community to show acceptance of responsibility. I think that’s an important part of parole consideration, and it’s completely lacking in this case.”

It’s important to add that Blanton was only convicted in 2001, although the bombing happened in 1963.

The bombing took lives of four Black girls: Carole Robertson, Cynthia Wesley, Addie Mae Collins, and Denise McNair.

It was an act of white supremacist terrorism, when four members of KKK planted at least 15 sticks of dynamite attached to a timing device beneath the front steps of the church.

Martin Luther King Jr. described it as “one of the most vicious and tragic crimes ever perpetrated against humanity”.

Blanton must stay behind bars! If the hearing goes in his favor, our justice system will fail us yet again.
