Birmingham
Alabama's largest city
Birmingham names two major cities.
The original is England's second-largest city, an industrial center known historically for manufacturing.
The American Birmingham, in Alabama, was a hub of the civil rights movement—site of the 1963 church bombing and Martin Luther King Jr.'s "Letter from Birmingham Jail." We're driving through Birmingham on the way to Atlanta.
