What do a fearless civil rights leader and a legendary country music outlaw have in common? They’ve both taken their rightful places in the U.S. Capitol, representing Arkansas, and you can see how in “Unveiled: Daisy Bates and Johnny Cash.”

Along the way is beauty that folks fought to preserve. ‘Save the Buffalo’ was the cry.
