“Ballad of Birmingham” In the poem‚ “Ballad of Birmingham”‚ Dudley Randall depicts the real historical events of the 1963 bombing of Martin Luther King Jr.’s church by white hate criminals in Birmingham‚ Alabama. Although this is the background and basis to the poem‚ I believe there is a deeper meaning that just that.

Though this seems a bit lopsided‚ the number of stay-at-home fathers has grown over 60% since 2004 (Randall: par 5). How does this alarmingly growing number of stay-at-home fathers feel about their lives‚ and why is the number growing so rapidly?
