Tennessee Orange

It's a bit unusual to see someone in Selma wearing collegiate apparel

that represents any college except Alabama or Auburn. But this young lady

wore a Tennessee jacket at last weekend's Integrity Worldwide Run for Kenya.

She would fit right in today in Tuscaloosa as the University of Alabama

Crimson Tide hosts the Tennessee Volunteers in football.

WELCOME!

Selma is among the oldest cities in Alabama and has the largest contiguous historic district. It is known for its Civil War and Civil Rights history. The Battle of Selma was one of the last fought in the War Between the States, and the town was a center for the Voting Rights Movement in the 1960s. Today, with a population of about 20,000, Selma is the largest town in the western Black Belt region. The Black Belt, named for the color of its soil, stretches across Central Alabama from Mississippi to Georgia.
