Beschreibung

The Cradle of Texas Road encircles the Lone Star landscapes that nurtured so much of the state's early history, from European settlement through the Texas Republic. The first attempt at Texan liberation ended in the bloodiest battle in Texas history, after the insurgents divided their forces along racial lines at Medina in 1813. It required Sam Houston's more collaborative approach at the Battle of San Jacinto in 1836 to finally realize the dream of Texas independence. Local historians Robin and Joy Montgomery transcribe the region bounded by Navasota, Madisonville, Hunstsville and Conroe into a master class on the subject of nation-building and cultural integration.

Owens remains as one of the greatest athletes in track and field history. The following audio clips include an interview with Owens by German radio just before competition at the Olympics, and three separate takes of an interview with American media shortly after the games.

    Radical Advocate - Ida B Wells...

    Born into the brutal reality of slavery, Ida B. Wells rose to become an audacious journalist, teacher, and activist for racial and gender justice. In Radical Advocate, Mary E. Triece examines the rhetorical strategies employed by Wells to challenge deeply rooted systems of oppression, strategies that remain powerful and relevant today. 
     
    Triece introduces the concept of "radical embodied advocacy" to give an account of Wells's unique position as a Black woman whose personal encounters with white violence were palpable, experienced physically and mentally. White men lynched Wells's friends and threatened her own life, forcing her into exile after destroying the very press on which she wrote and edited. From this perspective, Wells understood lynching as linked to white economic and political control. Through a close analysis of Wells's speeches, writings, and journalism, Triece reveals how Wells pioneered a form of "intersectional journalism" that centered the voices of those marginalized by race, gender, and class. 
     
    Triece underscores the epistemic challenges faced by marginalized advocates and the importance of their perspectives in shaping social change. Radical Advocate positions Wells as a prophetic figure whose insights into the systemic nature of racism remain profoundly relevant in today's world.
