A series of remarks on method and framing in Spike Lee's 1997 documentary film 4 Little Girls. I am interested in two things that frame the film. First, Lee's deliberate exclusion of narratives of white transformation from the meaning of the death of four girls in the 1963 church bombing, accomplished in large part by his derisive and dismissive treatment of George Wallace's late in life "turn away" from racism. Second, Lee's withdrawal of himself from the composition of the film, letting witnesses be the source of their own knowledge and transmission of affect. This moves Lee away from the role of creator of knowledge, and toward the ethics of editing - crafting the knowledge given in witness into the sound and image of the screen.
