...Your choice of Judge Johnson as a cover subject was a wise, albeit a too-long-delayed one. Many of us native Alabamians have long admired Johnson's clear, courageous and compelling legal decisions-many of them lonely beacons of judicial reason on a small island of sanity in the midst of a wild, raging sea of irrationality...

There were the marchers streaming over Selma's Pettus Bridge on their way to Montgomery, Ala., after having been stopped by tear gas and cattle prods the day before. There was the blank puzzlement on the faces of Collie Leroy Wilkins and his two accomplices after their conviction for violating the civil rights of Selma Marcher Viola Liuzzo, after they had been previously acquitted of murdering her. There were...
