Interview with Sheriff Mel Bailey
QUESTION 5
INTERVIEWER:
WELL OBVIOUSLY IT DIDN'T END WITH BULL CONNOR THERE BECAUSE HE CONTINUED TO TAKE CHARGE OF THINGS EVEN AFTER THAT.
Sheriff Melvin Bailey:
There was an ongoing situation, not unlike the governor, he was saying it louder. Segregation eternally. This sort of thing. It was a new thing that had to be adjusted in the minds of everybody. But I, I clearly knew my position and if I have one forte, you might say it's I treat people fairly, equally, no preferential treatment.
