| Summary: | Roosevelt, Charles, and Edwin Bracy are standing behind her. The Bracy home had been destroyed by a firebomb, so they were living in the shack while their new house was under construction. In this photograph, Mrs. Bracy is discussing her family's escape from the fire. An article about the bomb ("Fire Bomb Levels Elmore County Farmhouse" by John Klein) appeared on page 1 of The Southern Courier for January 8-9, 1966; an article ("On Jan. 1, 1966, the House Was Bombed" by Debra Bracy) and photo spread about the family appeared on page 3 of The Southern Courier for December 2-3, 1967. Both issues are available online (not on the ADAH website): http://www.southerncourier.org/low-res/Vol2_No02_1966_01_08.pdf and http://www.southerncourier.org/low-res/Vol3_No49_1967_12_02.pdf
