 Being Texan is weird bc I was raised to believe my state heritage was all about resisting tyranny at the cost of the Republic’s economy, only to find out that was all just pro-slavery propaganda. I learned the right values from the wrong “heroes” ig 😕

If it makes u feel better, Texas is the home of arguably one of America’s most important careers, the cowboy. And after the civil war, many freedmen and freedwomen moved there to start ranching careers and actually made decent money working cattle and breaking horses

I don’t know if I have a historical hero from my state (Virginia). The Readjuster party during reconstruction was pretty damn cool, supporting black rights and progressive policy. But a startlingly large number of them were ex-confederates.
