NATCHEZ MISSISSIPPI - Deep South road trip
In the summer of 2015, my parents and I made a fantastic road trip across the Southern States, following the blues highway. Our second stop was Natchez, Mississippi. We enjoyed our stay in this friendly and beautiful historic town, and were impressed by the antebellum houses, city cemetery and our own Bed & Breakfast: The Historic Oak Hill Inn.
We visited Stanton Hall, which offers a glimpse into the life of a wealthy Natchez family. Another antebellum house we visited, was the impressive Longwood. This octagonal house was never finished due to the civil war, which makes it even more interesting.
We had a great dinner at Magnolia Grill and a drink at the Saloon under the Hill, right across the Mississippi river.

The Plantation System in Southern Life- Part 1 (1950)
A Eurocentric view of the plantation system and its effect on Southern U.S. culture.
Placing the viewer in the perspective of the white tourist family, a historically preserved Southern mansion is investigated and the past system of plantation owners and slaves is re-created. The homes of the past are contrasted with the homes of the current tenant farmers and landlords. At the end, as the viewer observes a polite barbecue party of well-dressed white people as the voiceover narrates:
Today, if we visit a social gathering in the south, we'll see some of these things. The gentle manners and courtesy. The separation of society into distinct groups. And the relationship of that society to the land, which supplies its wealth. These are some of the things the plantation system has contributed to southern life.

Brief History of the Mississippi Capitol
The Mississippi State Capitol has been the seat of the state’s government since 1903. The building is located on the site of the old state penitentiary and was designed by Theodore Link, an architect from St. Louis, Missouri. Construction cost more than $1 million, which was funded by back taxes from a lawsuit settlement with the Illinois Central Railroad.
The State Capitol is the third capitol building constructed in Jackson. The first building was completed in 1822 and no longer stands. The second building was completed in 1839, served as the Capitol until 1903, and today is the Old Capitol Museum. Upon the Capitol’s dedication in 1903, Governor A.H. Longino said of the new building, “... give to the people a Capitol building which shall be a reflex of the State’s public spirit, pride and integrity.”
The Beaux Arts-style building was designed to house all branches of Mississippi state government. Currently, only the Legislature, the ceremonial office of the Governor, and an office of the Secretary of State operate in the Capitol.
The Capitol has a width of 402 feet, and the dome has a height of 180 feet. The interior Rotunda dome contains 750 lights which illuminate the blind-folded lady representing “Blind Justice” and four figures that played a role in Mississippi history: two Native Americans, a European explorer and a Confederate soldier. An eagle adorns the top of the central dome and is made of copper coated with gold leaf. The eagle is 8-feet high and 15-feet wide.
The Hall of Governors is located on the first floor. Portraits of the state’s governors since the creation of the Mississippi Territory in 1798 are on display. The former State Library and the former Supreme Court chambers, now both committee meeting rooms, are located on the second floor. The Legislature is housed on the third floor, along with the Governor, Lieutenant Governor and Speaker of the House.
The capitol grounds contain one of the 55 replicas of the original Liberty Bell and a Women of the Confederacy monument, dedicated in June 1912, to honor the wives, daughters, sisters and mothers of Confederate soldiers. A variety of trees surround the Capitol, including the Magnolia (the official state tree and flower), a Japanese magnolia and cherry trees. The battleship figurehead is from the second USS Mississippi. The ship was sold to Greece in 1914, but the figurehead was presented to Mississippi by the U.S. Navy in December 1909.
The Mississippi State Capitol is designated a Mississippi Landmark and is listed in the National Register of Historic Places. A four-year, $19 million restoration completed in 1983 helped to preserve and maintain the original features of the building.

Mississippi RV park owner evicts interracial couple
TUPELO — A Mississippi RV park owner evicted an interracial couple because of the color of their skin.
“Me and my husband, not ever in 10 years have we experienced any problem,” said Erica Flores Dunahoo, who is Hispanic and Native American and whose husband, a National Guardsman, is African-American. “Nobody’s given us dirty looks. This is our first time.”
More than a half-century after the Civil Rights Act of 1964 barred discrimination on the basis of race, Gene Baker acknowledged asking the interracial couple to leave his RV park near Tupelo.
Baker, who lives in Aberdeen, said he only did it because “the neighbors were giving me such a problem.”
The NAACP is investigating.
“Racial discrimination should be a thing of the past in Mississippi, considering our long history,” said Derrick Johnson, president of the Mississippi NAACP.
With some state leaders expressing intolerance, “we can do no more than expect incidents like this to exist in the state of Mississippi,” he said.
Marriages between white and black Mississippians remained illegal in the state until 1967 when the U.S. Supreme Court tossed out laws that barred interracial marriage. A year later, the Fair Housing Act made it illegal to refuse to rent to people on the basis of their race, color, religion, sex or national origin.
In the decades since, cultural barriers have begun to fade.
In 2011, The New York Times featured Mississippi as having one of the nation’s fastest growing multiracial populations — up 70 percent between 2000 and 2010.

The Skeleton Key House-Filming Location
This video highlights the beauty of the Felicity plantation. The Felicity plantation was the main filming location of The Skeleton Key, a suspense/thriller movie that stared Kate Hudson.
While my family and I were in Louisiana, we decided to stop by the plantation only to find out that it was still under renovation. We took a tour at the St. Joseph plantation, which is next door, and the family told us that they own both the St. Joseph and Felecity (Skeleton Key) Plantation. We had a great time at the St. Joseph plantation and would recommend it over most plantation tours due to several reasons. First being that our tour guide, a very nice elder lady, was in fact a family member of the owners of the plantation. She told us stories about how she would spend time in the summer at the St. Joseph plantation with her grandmother, as her grandmother currently lived there. This made the plantation feel extremely authentic as it is the last plantation which has been owned under the same family. Secondly, this plantation isn't meant to be the grandest or most stately of all the plantations on the Mississippi, unlike most of the other plantations that offer tours. The St. Joseph plantation was a working sugar plantation, not meant to be flashy, and is a time capsule reason being it has had minimal changes since its construction (embellishments/additions).
The Skeleton Key is one of my all time favorite movies, regardless of genres. This film is about care taker Caroline Ellis, Kate Hudson, and how she finds herself intermingling with the evil spirits of the house's slaves. At the end of The Skeleton Key is a twist that is sure to get you talking about this fantastic movie. A must see!
