Talladega Tidbit

  This is an anecdote passed on by Richard Stokham, long-time friend of the late Dr. Art Bacon. Dr. Bacon was a student at Talladega College in the 1960s. As a student he was beaten at the Anniston train station by members of the Ku Klux Klan. He later returned to serve as a professor, Dean, and then Provost. He was world-recognized in the fields of science and art. He was able to impact so many people through his art and his willingness to teach. This week is the one year anniversary of Dr. Bacon's passing. 
"Art was a lot of fun and he was a lot of fun to be around. He was also a bit of a flirt. There was a popular movie that came out in the early 1970s called Blackula. The plot isn't important so much as you understand it stars a Black man made up to look like Dracula. Anyway, one year Art dressed up as Blackula for Halloween. He got a kick out of posing for photos pretending to bite the necks of young women. There was a BBQ restaurant in Lincoln (AL) that had photos of local celebrities on the wall. Sure enough, up until the place closed, there was a photo of Art Bacon dressed as Blackula, biting some waitress's neck. But like I said, Art liked to have fun."
