"the man from the train," in which he investigates one of the deadliest serial killers in american history. , itmany of the times happened within 100 yards of the railroad tracks. us of the things that helps identify his crime as opposed to somebody else's is it usually happens at the intersection of two railroad tracks. intersection at two railroad tracks, presumably because he his after he committed crime, he had to get out of town before dawn, and he did not want to be stranded there waiting for a train to come through that he could hop on. so at the intersection of multiple railroad tracks, that gave him more opportunities to get out of town before the crime was discovered. night at 8:00 eastern on c-span's q&a. tv weekend, american history is featuring fayetteville,

arkansas, and cities tour's staff recently visited the rare site showcasing its history. learn more about fayetteville all weekend, here on american history tv. here withare standing jason, who will provide us a driving tour of fayetteville. where are we standing right now? >> this is in front of the walker stone house, and we also have a sculpture called deer half-deer. >> what are we going to see today? >> we are going to take a tour of the entertainment district in downtown, go up to the university of arkansas, and had up to mount okoye and the a beautiful view from the highest in fayetteville. >> are you ready to go? >> let's do it. >> we are on our way. >> this is block street.

it is one of my favorite spots in all of fayetteville. it is a one-way street, really quaint, and we have boutiques, we have a few places for food, we have a few bars or nightlife locations. it leads us right up to the historical downtown fayetteville square. >> why do they call this historic square? what makes it historic? >> it is on the historic registry. the post office here is also home to a lot of different events. it is right in the middle of the square here in downtown fayetteville. >> how many people live in fayetteville? people live here in fayetteville, and the university -- about 27,000 of those people are students at the university of arkansas. it is a big eclectic group of people who live here.

that is one of the charms of is that no matter where you are from, most people find something to love and find a place for themselves here in fayetteville. now,we are coming into this is in northwest arkansas. it is not very far from the square. those two areas, the square and the street make up the entertainment district of fayetteville. is the walmart center. the walmart center is a huge part of the fabric of northwest arkansas, and it is right here in downtown fayetteville. and as well as having a broadway series, multiple broadway shows a year tour through here, they also do a lot of work in the community. they have a jazz areas that happens, they feature local artists sometimes.

they have an art gallery inside of the arts center, which features both local, regional, and national artists. so they are really about the national and international grand scope, as well as all the way down to the local people. they are all supported and showcased at the walton arts .enter and what we are on right now, this street is becoming a cultural corridor. this is our library, and it is in the middle of an expansion project. it will take over this side of the street as well. with the expanded library, with the community creative center and the walton arts center all on one street, it is really expanding our arts district here. noticed a lot of locally owned businesses here. why is that? >> you know, i think the walton family and walmart have a lot to do with that, because they

support entrepreneurs in our community. a support the local nonprofit scene. we have one of the highest per capita amount of nonprofits in the nation. the is due to the fact that walton family, walmart, supports that. the philanthropic efforts of that organization and those people have really helped to lay the framework for local business , for nonprofits, and for a supportive handholding hand vibe we all feel here. citizensfayetteville connect themselves to walmart or the university? >> i think bentonville would connect itself more wholeheartedly with walmart. but we were just at walmart center, right? it of the things here is

feels more like a region that a specific city. although all the cities in northwest arkansas have their they are just bridges between each city. to the university of arkansas has a big footprint here with the student population and everything that comes with having a university in a town, all the benefits that brings. but walmart also really works to serve northwest arkansas. >> where are we now? >> we are on the university of arkansas campus. there are hundreds of students who go here. our numbers grow every year, which impacts everything to do with the economy of fayetteville and northwest arkansas in general. >> diversity. talk to me about the city's diversity. what is the makeup? >> in northwest arkansas and in fayetteville, what you will find in general is -- because of the university, it is diverse and eclectic.

in washington county, just to the north in springdale, that has an enormous latino population. a lot of our efforts here in northwest arkansas are to figure out the bridges between the caucasians, the african-americans, the latino populations. in 1940ntegration was eight, and the university of arkansas admitted a student, and african-american students were admitted here in arkansas. it speaks to that hand-holding-hand kind of thing that fayetteville has been doing and continues on today. we will, p are, and we will turn right. old main, which is one of the flagship buildings of the university of arkansas. it is on every postcard that

goes out. in front of old main is our arbortorium. at least one native tree from represented on the lawn. and one thing i think that is interesting and unique to the university of arkansas is when you graduate, you have your name etched in the sidewalk. so winding through the entire campus are sidewalks with names on them. there are even buildings, more sidewalk space for the future names of graduates. this all goes back to 1905, when students voted that they wanted to make that their thing. they were like yeah, let's do something that is different and enter our names into the sidewalk. retroactively as well. >> as we passed the razorback stadium -- what is the mascot?

y? >> arkansas did not have the mascot of the razorback initially. told his teamches that he wanted them to get out there and get after the other team like a pack of wild razorback hogs. that locker room speech kind of stuck with the student body, and they adopted the name arkansas razorbacks. e is that our cheer is we call the hogs. the farm and agricultural department here had a certain way they would call the hogs in their program to come in and eat. >> can you do it? >> let's hear it? suey.ooo pig, suey.o pig, woooooooo pig, suey.

razorbacks. >> you have to do it three times, people think it is one time and then it is done. no. do not without after one, everybody. [laughter] >> three times. you have to go falsetto, and you have to go pig suey. >> we are going up to the top? >> up to the top of mount sequoia. we are going up to the top that overlooks the city. >> what does it mean to be about the ozark -- be in the ozark region? >> it is beautiful, for one thing. so for me it means rock mining, streams, hills, outdoor activities. and there is also a cultural thing. a style of music, a style of dress that you will find. people who live here, some people still adhere to that

look. we know that the perception of a country bumpkin is not necessarily who we are anymore. we do not want that to be projected and people to think arkansas, take your shoes off. at the same time, there is such a rich cultural history with the storytelling, the music, the dress and we want to celebrate those things at the same time. so it is kind of like either side of a coin here. we are up at the top of mount sequoia, and we are overlooking the city of fayetteville. you can see everything appear from the arts and entertainment district, down there where we just were, to the university of arkansas. north, stretching up to springdale and rogers and fentanyl and bella vista, and even eventually up into

missouri, our neighbors to the north. this is mount sequoia, and it is a beautiful overlooked because it is inspirational. just to take it in. >> our cities tour staff recently traveled to fayetteville, arkansas, to learn about the rich history. learn more about fayetteville and other stops on our tour at c-span.org/citiestour. americanatching history tv, all weekend, every weekend on c-span3. >> sunday night on afterwards, former speechwriter for president george w. bush and atlantic columnist david f cy:e with his book "trumpocra the corruption of the american republic." the sameomes from
