My Sr. Year in College (Faulkner State) My English thesis was on Ms. Harper's book and it's application to the current and past legal representations of racial minorities in the Southern judicial system. I am from Escambia county just adjacent to Monroville county. I also combined my Photography thesis with the English thesis.
I was able to walk right in to visit Miss Alice and talk with her. She was quite nice and we discussed her father's and her practice and she sent me onto several other people. We spoke of her sister's unwillingness to be in the public eye a little which I could understand being from a political family. Sometimes you want to just say your piece and fade into the woodwork.
I also went to the chamber of commerce and the sweet lady there took me the cemetery where their parents were buried and then around town to other places. She just locked the door and left a note that she would be back shortly. No where but in small town Alabama would anyone do that!
I will always treasure my meeting with Miss Alice and the people I met that day. And the A+ did help me to make President's list!!
