Remembering History: September 15

Today is Sunday, Sept. 15, the 259th day of 2024. There are 107 days left in the year.

Today in history:

On Sept. 15, 1963, tragedy struck as four Black girls lost their lives in a bombing at the 16th Street Baptist Church in Birmingham, Alabama. This event marked a dark chapter in the civil rights movement, with three Ku Klux Klansmen later convicted for their involvement.

Other significant events on this date:

In 1835, Charles Darwin set foot on the Galápagos Islands during his voyage aboard the HMS Beagle.

In 1935, the Nuremberg Laws were passed in Nazi Germany, stripping German Jews of their citizenship.

In 1940, the Battle of Britain took a turn in favor of the Royal Air Force as they inflicted heavy losses on the Luftwaffe during World War II.

In 1958, a tragic accident occurred when a commuter train derailed into Newark Bay, resulting in the loss of 48 lives.

In 1959, Nikita Khrushchev made history by becoming the first Soviet head of state to visit the United States.

In 1978, Muhammad Ali achieved a remarkable feat by winning the heavyweight title for the third time in a rematch with Leon Spinks.

In 2008, Lehman Brothers filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, marking the largest such filing in U.S. history due to the subprime mortgage crisis.
