Caption/Description

Ten years after Selma, the black power/super-fly salute celebrates Black Alabama's emerging confidence, a development manifest even more dramatically by a black Jehovah's Witness baptizing a white convert in the holiday Inn swimming pool or more subtly by a forester's wife reading American Home on her sharecropper shack porch.
