John Coltrane wrote "Alabama" as a powerful musical response to the 1963 16th Street Baptist Church bombing, specifically patterning his saxophone melodies on the rhythmic inflections and cadences of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s eulogy for the four murdered girls, transforming grief into determined resolve. The instrumental piece serves as a mournful dirge and a call to action, capturing the tragedy and the spirit of the Civil Rights Movement. I created this picture video of King's eulogy under-

Coltrane was inspired by Martin Luther King’s speech, delivered in the church sanctuary three days after the 16th Street Baptist Church bombing, and patterned his saxophone playing on it.
