Chapter 8: How We See Ourselves

Each year, Texas public school students learn the story of their state’s origin: the battle for the Alamo. The story has become a rallying cry throughout the ages for Texans, and Americans – It’s an underdog tale of sacrifice. But, it’s also not very historically accurate. In the series finale, Grace explores the danger of teaching myths as though they’re fact. Teaching Texas is a new audio documentary from Wonder Media Network that uncovers the surprising history behind America’s latest culture war. WMN on Twitter: @wmnmedia Grace Lynch on Twitter: @gracelynch08 Hosted on Acast.
