Tuscaloosa is a city in the Gulf of Mexico. It was built in the 1800s as a military fort. This made it the heart for a large portion of the state. In reality, Tuscaloosa has been dubbed"the heartbeat of Alabama" because of the importance of this town in the life span of this nation.

Located approximately ten miles south of Tuscaloosa is Clanton. It is one of the oldest towns in the state. Clanton is the only neighborhood in the state that still maintains its original title. On Clanton's southern shore is Springville. The city of Springville was set as the Primary headquarters for the Confederate army during the Civil War.

Over the past couple of decades, Springville has been home to several nationalist's rally and protests. Still, there are not any racist or white supremacist groups in Springville and this fact was a source of controversy for some individuals in the community. Among the leaders of this town, Bruce Wilson, is a member of the Ku Klux Klan and he set the city's KKK chapter. Nevertheless, the residents of Springville would not allow the city to change its name.
