  • Journeying Together In
    Journeying Together in 2015 Prayer Journal Welcome to the fifth annual Judson College prayer journal! This year’s journal is almost identical in format to last year’s edition. We found the stories of our Judson sisters so powerful that we decided to include ten more this year. Their lives, though different, share two common themes: love of God and love of Judson. We are grateful for their faithfulness to live into their callings with strength, grace, and determination. We hope that you will find these Judson women equally encouraging and inspiring as you ask how you can serve your God and your Judson. In addition, each week features a scripture passage and a list of prayer concerns to guide our prayers for our beloved Judson. As you study, read, and pray, we ask that you allow your minds and hearts to be changed. Let God mold you, call you, and use you. A host of Judson women already have and we are blessed beyond measure because they dared to say yes! Susan D. Jones, 02 Mandy E. McMichael, ‘02 Co-chairs, Journeying Together in Prayer Committee Opening Prayer Lord, we ask for your help as we seek to make Judson a college that serves you. Grant all of us – trustees, faculty, administration, students, alumnae, and supporters – wisdom as we discern where you are leading us next. May we seek your guidance as we determine how we might increase Judson’s influence in Perry County, Alabama, the United States, and the world. Give us clear goals, capable leaders, and willing servants to accomplish each task you bring before us.

    ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to thank Randy Sparks for being the most responsive dissertation advisor a graduate student could hope for, giving notes that consistently made this project better. I would also like to thank my dissertation committee, Emily Clark and Laura Rosanne Adderley, for their thoughtful feedback through this process. Thanks to funding from the School of Liberal Arts at Tulane University and the Episcopal Women’s History Project I had the opportunity to visit many archives throughout the South and meet quite a few helpful archivists and research librarians who made the experience even more rewarding. I also have the Woodrow Wilson National Fellowship Foundation to thank for funding my final year of uninterrupted writing, for which I am eternally grateful. Finally, I would like to thank Ed for the emotional support and dedicate this work to all the active churchwomen in my family, especially Laura, Jackie, Lydia, Helen, and Jacqueline. ii TABLE OF CONTENTS ACKNOWLEDGMENTS………………………………………………………...………ii INTRODUCTION………………………………………………………………………...1 CHAPTER 1……………………………………………………………………………..23 Preparing for Public Life in the Church: Religious Leadership and Benevolent Activism at Female Academies CHAPTER 2………………………………………………………………………..……78 Nurseries of Female Piety and Benevolence: The Gulf South’s Free and Enslaved Sunday Schools CHAPTER 3…………………………………………………………………………....142 “Her Piety Was a Living Oracle”: Public Speaking and Service in the Meetings of the Church CHAPTER 4……………………………………………………………………...…….215 Time, Talent, and

  • Selma Civil Rights Movement
    50 Landmarks for a 50th Anniversary The Selma Civil Rights Trail 50 LANDMARKS FOR A 50TH ANNIVERSARY In the summer of 1965, Congress passed and President Lyndon B. Johnson signed the Voting Rights Act, one of the most momentous civil rights laws in American history. Events that had happened in Selma earlier that year pushed Congress to create this landmark law. African American citizens took courageous actions that not only changed their lives and communities but that also reshaped the United States, giving all citizens a new taste of freedom and equality. This driving tour of landmarks associated with Selma’s Civil Rights Movement includes 50 properties—some well recognized from the events of 50 years ago but many others that speak to the deeper story of the struggle for civil rights. All of these places help tell the whole story of what the Civil Rights Movement meant to Selma, to Alabama, and to the nation. Many places welcome visitors but others remain private. Visitors should respect property rights and only view those buildings from the city sidewalks. 1. National Voting Rights Museum and Institute 6 U.S. Highway 80 www.nvrmi.com Open daily from Monday to Thursday and on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday by appointment. Admission charged. This museum focuses on the stories, people, and events of the 1960s and the conflicts such as Bloody Sunday on the adjacent Edmund Pettus Bridge and the resulting Selma-to-Montgomery March. 2. Selma-to-Montgomery March Memorials 5 U.S. Highway 80 On the north side of the highway across from the National Voting Rights Museum are interpretive markers and commemorative sculptures about the Selma-to- Montgomery March and leaders such as John Lewis, Hosea Williams, Amelia Boynton Robinson, and Marie Foster.
