Episode 50: September 11th At The Alamo
September 11 is a day that needs no year to explain its meaning, a day forever marked in our memories. As we vow to never forget its horrors, history reminds us that September 11 has important ties to Texas history, in unexpected ways.
We roll back time to reveal what September 11 meant during the Republic of Texas era. Then we’ll jump forward in time to 2001, when the world as we knew it changed in an instant - and, the solemn reminder now on display at the Alamo. Featuring the Alamo's Senior Curator, Historian & Lecturer Ernesto Rodriguez.
