Kudzu covers a barn
July 23, 2010 - 4:09 am - Kudzu grows so fast I bet if you go back to that barn today it will be completely covered.
June 6, 2010 - 6:23 am - Nice one, Earl. Kudzu may have its down sides, but there is no denying that it looks exotic when it covers trees, fences, buildings and slow people with that green mantle. Kind of a cool barn, too. A shame it has been let go like that. Barns are neat buildings. We had a huge one at the farm I grew up on.

Memphis 1968
The photos from Memphis 1968 were taken on assignment to cover the march in the aftermath of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr’s assination at a Memphis hotel. The country was still in a state of shock and outrage at the killing. Martial law was declared in Memphis and National Guard troops were sent in to prevent violence. Nobody was allowed on the streets the night before the march and a curfew was imposed. It had been less than 48 hours since the killing and emotions were still high. These photos are from several contact sheets that were left from that assignment. The original negatives were discarded when the newspaper I was working for at that time moved to a new location. I apologize for the quality of the images, but thought the historical significance was enought to justify posting them.

Memphis 1968 Part C



National Guard troops from around the state of Tennessee had been ordered into Memphis because of fears of riots and violence. They lined most of the side streets of the march. The expected violence did not happen.
