  • Julia Tutwiler Prison for Women Pursuant to the Civil Rights Ofinstitutionalized Persons Act ("CRIP A"), 42 U.S.C
    U.S. Department of Justice Civil Rights Division Office of the Assistant AI/orn ey Genera l Washillgtoll, D.C. 20530 The Honorable Robeli Bentley Govemor JAN 172014 State Capitol 600 Dexter Avenue Montgomery, AL 36130 Re: Investigation of the Julia Tutwiler Plison for Women and Notice of Expanded Investigation Dear Govemor Bentley: The Special Litigation Section of the Civil Rights Division has concluded its investigation of allegations of sexual abuse and sexual harassment at the Julia Tutwiler Prison for Women pursuant to the Civil Rights ofInstitutionalized Persons Act ("CRIP A"), 42 U.S.C. § 1997. CRIP A authorizes the Department of Justice ("001") to seek equitable relief where prison conditions violate the constitutional ri ghts ofprisoners in state cOlTectional facilities. Consistent witl1 the statutory requirements of CRIPA, we write to infonn you of our findings, the facts SUppoliing tl1em, and the minimum remedial steps necessary to address the identified deficiencies. We conclude that the State of Alabama violates the Eighth Amendment of the United States Constitution by failing to protect women plisoners at Tutwiler from ham1 due to sexual abuse and harassment from correctional staff. Tutwiler has a history of unabated staff-on-prisoner sexual abuse and harassment. The women at Tutwiler universally fear for their safety. They live in a sexualized envirolunent with repeated and open sexual behavior, including: abusive sexual contact between staff and prisoners; sexualized activity, including a strip show condoned by staff; profane and unprofessional sexualized language and harassment; and deliberate cross-gender viewing of prisoners showering, urinating, and defecating. The inappropriate sexual behavior, including sexual abuse, continues, and is grossly undelTepOlied, due to insufficient staffing and supervision, inadequate policies and procedures, a heightened fear of retaliation, and an inadequate investigative process.

  • Community, Identity and Confederate Nationalism in an Alabama Planter Family, 1819-1876
    "A people peculiarly blessed": Community, Identity and Confederate Nationalism in an Alabama Planter Family, 1819-1876. Marian Crenshaw Austin Submitted in partial fulfilment for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in American Studies University of East Anglia June 2019 This copy of the thesis has been supplied on condition that anyone who consults it is understood to recognise that its copyright rests with the author and that use of any information derived there from must be in accordance with current UK Copyright Law. In addition, any quotation or extract must include full attribution. 2 Abstract This thesis explores nationalism, state identity and community through the lens of one Southern planter family. The Crenshaw family are traced from their origins in Virginia, to South Carolina and thence to Alabama Territory during the first wave of migration between 1816 and 1819. Establishing a strong kinship community upon migration, they fostered an identity with their new state which superseded that of American or Confederate identity. Employing genealogy as a research methodology to enhance the understanding of kinship networks, within the framework of a detailed analysis of the Crenshaw family’s archive, this research demonstrates how familial power dynamics created and redefined their identity as Alabamians, Southerners and Americans. Employing the framework of national vs. local identity, this project reflects on the relative importance of localism over and above national loyalty and the possibilities for localism superseding national identity prior to the Civil War and beyond. Planters, lawyers and politicians, the Crenshaws belonged to the planter elite and as such accrued significant land and wealth, including a large community of enslaved people.
