Chapter 9, The Tide States to Turn, 2001-2004

The Charleston Five Collection contains correspondence, legal documents, financial documents, literary productions, printed materials and video material all pertaining to the published work of Suzan Erem and Paul Durrenberger. The collection is arranged into four series: Chapters, Supplemental Research Materials, Print Materials and Multimedia.

The first series, Chapters, contains materials directly cited in the book and is organized under the chapter headings originally given to us by the authors. Chapters 1-12 and 14 are included, with chapter thirteen lacking an originally designated set of materials. Chapters include sections of police reports, court documents, correspondence and literary productions used in the specific chapters.

The second series, Supplemental Research Materials, contains all other research materials included in the collection that were not included in specific chapters. Materials include police reports, legal documents, correspondence, literary productions and printed materials that relate to the Charleston 5 and the research for the work.

The third series, Print Materials, includes a set of published works included in the collection for their use in the book.

The fourth and final series includes DVDs, VHS and CDs with video and other files used in the production of the Erem/Durrenberger work, which include transcripts of the interviews and earlier drafts of the book.
