Early in the morning on Jan. 3, 1984, Janet Burke, a 20-year-old white woman, was opening the day care center where she worked at the East End Church in Richmond, Virginia. After she locked the door behind her and walked back toward her office, a man broke the glass portion of the front door and came inside. “Sometimes,” she said, “it takes everything to fall into place the wrong way for it to work to someone’s advantage.” Normally, for safety reasons, two people opened the center together.
