30 sept. 1956 - Martin Luther King House Bombing

Description:

Martin Luther King's house was bombed in retaliation for the succes of the bus boycott. No one was hurt but a angry mob looking to both protect king and retaliate for the bombing formed outside his house. Once king made sure his family was safe he told the people to go home and to put down their weapons which they did, preventing what could have been an awful fight between the cops and black activists.
