Outlaw Connections to Eastabuchie
It sounds like something out of a movie - a burning home, the shots of Winchesters, the eventual mob violence that resulted in lynchings...
Eastabuchie is a small community in south Mississippi. Crazy name? Maybe. Okay, yes - in fact the locals aren't even in agreement over the spelling. Some signs show E-a-s-t-a-b-u-c-h-i-e and others adapt with an extra t as in E-a-s-t-a-b-u-t-c-h-i-e. Either way, it's a place worth exploring, a slice of the deep South that is both compelling and complacent, complex and simple.
