The Federal Arch

Looking from the steps of the federal courthouse in Selma,
 you can see the side entrance of the Dallas County Courthouse.
 This arch commemorates our town's two U.S. senators, John Tyler Morgan
 and Edmund Winston Pettus. I wonder if we could add Jeff Sessions.
 He was born in Selma!

In a way, this arch kind of symbolizes today's "over-arching" federal bureaucracy,
 and if you'd like to read about how things were meant to be, head on over
