Both her grandfather and her mother's grandfather were wealthy Alabamians. The common belief was that Tallulah received much of her acting talent from her father, but accounts of her mother1s younger days show proof that both of her parents were vivacious and talented. A stranger once told Tallulah, "Your mother was the most beautiful thing that ever lived. Many people have said you get your acting talent from your father, but I disagree. I was at school with Ada Eugenia and I knew Will well. Did you know that she could faint on 1 cue?11 Tallulahfs mother possessed grace and beauty and was quite flamboyant. She loved beautiful clothes and enjoyed creating a ruckus in her own Southern world.* Indeed, Tallulah inherited her mother's joy in turning social taboos upside down.

    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.

  • Utz on Gaillard, 'Cradle of Freedom: Alabama and the Movement That Changed America'
    H-1960s Utz on Gaillard, 'Cradle of Freedom: Alabama and the Movement That Changed America' Review published on Monday, August 1, 2005 Frye Gaillard. Cradle of Freedom: Alabama and the Movement That Changed America. Tuscaloosa: University of Alabama Press, 2004. xvi + 419 pp. $34.95 (cloth), ISBN 978-0-8173-1388-3. Reviewed by Karen Utz (University of Alabama Birmingham) Published on H-1960s (August, 2005) Alabama's Struggle for Justice Some of the key events of the civil rights movement took place in Alabama. Frye Gaillard's Cradle of Freedom focuses on the Montgomery Bus Boycott, George Wallace's infamous stand in the doorway at the University of Alabama, the Freedom Rides, the bombing of the Sixteenth Street Baptist Church, and Bloody Sunday. This fine book speaks to the bravery and wisdom of the leaders and legends of the movement--Rosa Parks, Martin Luther King, Jr., Stokley Carmichael, and Fred Shuttlesworth, who claimed that for him the cause took "divine insanity" (p.106). The strength of this extraordinary story is Gaillard's compelling portrayal of the early civil rights leaders, as well as all the ordinary "apostles of decency," both black and white, who believed it was possible to build a better world (p.xvi). Gaillard recognizes such overlooked individuals as Charles Gomillion, a professor at Tuskegee Institute who spent over thirty years crusading for black voting rights, and Vernon Johns, King's eloquent predecessor at Dexter Avenue Baptist Church, who continually spoke out against the "indignities of segregation" (p.xvi). Twenty years earlier, Alabamian Aubrey William, Roosevelt's director of the National Youth Administration, championed the concept of work relief and provided jobs to young black and white males during the Great Depression.

The scene in which Charles Alexander Swann (Dawson) attempts to strangle Margot Mary Wendice (Kelly), only to be himself stabbed with a pair of scis- sors, caused Hitchcock great anxiety.

The film has been called a superb commentary on watching films, on loneliness, and on obsession, as well as a sharp critique of the male psyche. But at its essence, Rear Window is a paean to old-fashioned snooping. “Sure he’s a snooper, but aren’t we all?” said Hitchcock. “I’ll bet you that nine out of ten people, if they see a woman across the courtyard undressing for bed, or even a man puttering around in his room, will stay and look; no one turns away and says, ‘It’s none of my business.’ ” The original still: Grace Kelly and James Stewart.
