Social Stratification in the Deep South

Yay, We’re in Birmingham

We made it to Birmingham after a very loooooong, but entertaining bus trip. It turns out, there is actually real content to this course. Who knew? (jk) Since I had been working on Hancock County Library preparation all week, I did the readings on the bus and my favorite one was the Paul Escott piece (I’ll have to tell him next time I see him). As a Yankee, still going through Southern acclimation, I had a few aha moments. Thanks, Paul!

Another treat was Fried Green Tomatoes, which was just getting good in a whodunit kind of way when we arrived at the Comfort Inn. Tonight we are eating at the restaurant that inspired the WhistleStop Cafe in the film (I’m sure Susan has a link somewhere).

So far, so good!
