Johnnie Robinson – NPR Web Article Excerpt, “Johnny’s Death: The Untold Tragedy in Birmingham”

Description

Printed page from the NPR web feature “Johnny’s Death: The Untold Tragedy in Birmingham,” concerning the death of Johnnie Robinson during the unrest following the September 15, 1963 bombing of Sixteenth Street Baptist Church in Birmingham. The surviving page contains a portrait photograph of Robinson and a caption identifying him as 16 years old when he was killed. The photograph is credited to Diane Robinson Samuels.

The preserved document appears to be an excerpt from the larger NPR article rather than a complete copy of the feature. It is therefore best described as a digital documentary and biographical reference source, not as a contemporaneous investigative record.
