Bill Summary
Barbara Curry-Story, honored
AI Summary
This resolution, offered by the House of Representatives of the Legislature of Alabama, formally honors the distinguished life and legacy of Barbara Curry-Story, recognizing her as a courageous trailblazer who overcame significant barriers in Alabama. Born in 1941, she became the first African American student to attend Jacksonville State University in 1965, a significant achievement during the Civil Rights Movement and the era of Jim Crow laws. Despite facing isolation, she persevered, earned a degree in Education, and went on to have a distinguished career of over three decades at Alabama Power, breaking barriers as one of the first women of color in technical roles. The resolution also acknowledges her devotion as a mother and wife, and celebrates the recent dedication of a historic marker at Jacksonville State University commemorating her courage and contributions.
