Author Talk: Mark J. Tenhundfeld - Giddens
2026-06-18 18:00 - 19:30
“State of Segregation: America’s Freedom Rights Struggles, as Told by Alabama by Mark J. Tenhundfeld offers a compelling exploration of Alabama’s civil rights and civil liberties history through the lens of thirty-two pivotal US Supreme Court cases. Each case, rooted in Alabama’s social and legal conflicts, reveals the persistent struggle to fulfill the Constitution’s promises of equal protection and due process. From early twentieth-century challenges to the Alabama Constitution of 1901 to contemporary battles over gerrymandering, Tenhundfeld traces how discrimination was embedded in the state’s institutions—and how it was contested.”

Mark J. Tenhundfeld is a former lawyer and teacher. After obtaining a degree in political science from Yale University and a law degree from Vanderbilt University, Tenhundfeld practiced law for twenty-six years in Mobile and Washington, DC, before switching careers to teach government and economics at his former high school, McGill-Toolen, in Mobile.
