BUILDING BRIDGES OF UNDERSTANDING
The message in this award winning video resonates today just as much as it did when it was created over 20 years ago. It was awarded the Grand Award at the New York Film Festival and the first Texas Legacy Award from the Dallas Press Club. The video was played at a major civic group luncheon as an inspiration for fostering awareness of the need for the city and its citizens of Dallas to extend cultural and commercial development across the Trinity river into the neglected neighborhoods in South Dallas. The project was lead by the Dallas Urban League and sponsored in part by KDFW-TV. Tim Seibles was asked to create and perform the poetic message. Andrea Boardman, Mark DeGarmo and Mark Boardman also deserve recognition for their creative contributions. More credits are at the end of the video.

5 Top-Rated Tourist Attractions in Texas
5 Top-Rated Tourist Attractions in Texas
The second largest state in the US, Texas - aka the Lone Star State - features a wealth of natural assets and cultural attractions. Geographically, its south central location offers a diversity of landscapes, from desert regions and cave systems to mountains, canyons, and the splendid coastal scenery along the Gulf of Mexico. Its world-class cities are also a big draw and are packed with tourist attractions. Highlights include San Antonio's superb River Walk (not to mention the famous Alamo); the galleries and museums of Dallas, Fort Worth, and Houston; the State Capitol in Austin; and the Space Center in Houston. Texas is also one of the most multicultural states, and Spanish influences in particular are still evident thanks to its status as a former colony of Spain

Spiritual Leon Kennedy @ Alameda Library. Outsider Visionary painting.
African-American spiritual visionary Leon Kennedy (b. 1945, Houston, Texas) uses mixed media on found objects to paint ecstatic visions, memory paintings, and urban life portraits. Kennedy is featured on several pages of Rosnak's Contemporary American Folk Art (Abbeville, 1996), and in Betty-Carol Sellen's important survey, Self Taught, Outsider, and Folk Art (McFarland & Company, 1999).
In 1997, the Smithsonian Institution purchased 200 significant works from the renowned Rosenak collection for an undisclosed sum estimated to be near $2M. This acquisition included a bed-sheet by Kennedy. The 1997 Folk Art Messenger, Vol. 10, No.3, reported that the acquisition makes the Smithsonian American Art Museum the world's preeminent repository for American self-taught art.
It is our desire to see them as part of the history of 20th-century American art, said Chuck Rosenak.
Mentioning Kennedy, the article notes these works were the first American collection exhibited at the Collection de l'Art Brut, Switzerland, which testifies to its quality and uniqueness. The Leon Kennedy masterwork now resides at the Smithsonian American Art Museum, while photos of Kennedy and other materials of Kennedy's are available for study at the National Archives in Washington, D.C.

Anti-Mexican American Violence under the Digital Lens
LLILAS Benson Digital Scholarship Speaker Series
Co-Sponsored by the Center for Mexican American Studies
In Mapping Segregated Histories of Racial Violence, Mónica Muñoz Martínez (2017–19 Carnegie Fellow and the Stanley Bernstein Assistant Professor of American Studies and Ethnic Studies at Brown University) uses digital tools to recover and make visible lost and obscured histories of racial violence in Texas from 1900 to 1920. Addressing the fact that local residents in the United States too often have borne the burden of demanding a public reckoning with legacies of state violence and navigating tensions in public memory, she believes new methods of storytelling are needed to help make research publicly available. Working at the intersection of American studies, ethnic studies, public humanities, and digital humanities, she says, has created opportunities to rethink archival research and historical narrative. The presentation will also unveil her newly launched Mapping Violence Project.
John Morán González (Director of the Center for Mexican American Studies and professor of English at UT-Austin) presents “State Violence and the Archive: Remembering La Matanza of 1915,” examining the cultural representations of state violence along the U.S.–Mexico borderlands between 1910 and 1920. Atrocities committed by state authorities in the South Texas borderlands during this period included the summary execution of an estimated 1,000 Mexican-descent residents suspected of aiding a guerilla uprising against the U.S. government, yet historical accounts of anti-Mexican atrocities obscure their white-supremacist origins. Drawing upon the work done by the Refusing to Forget Project, Morán González argues that these representations both enable and limit the possibilities of mobilizing the archive in the service of reforming public consciousness about such events, even as they resonate profoundly with contemporary issues of state violence against people of color, particularly police brutality.

Hating Whitey: Black Racism in America Today: Timeline, History (1999)
Black supremacy is a racist ideology stemming from the presupposition that Black people are superior to people of other racial backgrounds and therefore, Black people should politically dominate non-Black people. Like other racial supremacist ideologies and related social movements, it is based on a notion of biological race. In that sense, all forms of racial supremacy are essentialist ideologies that conflict with constructionist views of race. Despite these commonalities, according to most scholars of race, variants of racial supremacy differ significantly because, historically, they have wielded structural power and shaped popular and political discourses to different degrees. For example, some forms of racial supremacy have remained ideologies shared by a small faction and others have been structurally implemented on a broad social scale (see social structure and racism) by a majority.
In the 1930s, the Nation of Islam emerged, coming to prominence during the 1960s, when charismatic minister (Black civil right activist) Malcolm X became a spokesman for the movement. The group's founders, Master Fard Muhammad and Elijah Muhammad, preached the Doctrine of Yakub, which held that the Original Man was an Asiatic Black man. White people, it contended, were grafted from Black people 6,000 years ago by an ancient Black scientist named Yakub.
The New Black Panther Party (NBPP), whose formal name is the New Black Panther Party for Self-Defense, is a U.S.-based Black supremacist organization founded in Dallas, Texas in 1989.
The Israelite Church of God in Jesus Christ (ICGJC), formerly known as the Israeli Church of Universal Practical Knowledge, is a Black Hebrew Israelite Christian group which accepts the Old and New Testaments as well as the Apocrypha, as inspired Scripture, and which believes that specific people of African and West Indian descent are the lost 12 tribes of Israel and are the true racial and Biblical Jews. They have historically claimed racial superiority to Caucasians, and claim to have divine favor and inspiration. ICGJC World Headquarters is located in New York City, New York, United States.
Due to some overlapping separatist ideologies, some Black supremacist organizations have found a small number of common goals with White supremacist or other extremist organizations. In 1961 and 1962 George Lincoln Rockwell, the leader of the American Nazi Party, for example, was invited to speak by Elijah Muhammad at a Nation of Islam rally.

Former CIA Operative Explains How Spies Use Disguises | WIRED
An Examination of Hispanic and Latino History
As part of their Documented Rights Exhibit, the National Archives at St. Louis hosted a distinguished panel of scholars and legal experts to discuss the historical significance of documents from the Hernandez v. Corpus Christi, Texas (1959) case. A sampling of these case documents are featured in the Documented Rights exhibition. This case involves discrimination against children with Spanish surnames who were required to attend Spanish language speaking public schools, even though they could not speak Spanish.
The panel was moderated by attorney and immigration law professor Dr. Richard T. Middleton at the University of Missouri at St. Louis. Legal experts John Ammann (St. Louis University Civil Advocacy Clinic), Kenneth K. Schmitt (U.S. Legal Solutions, LLC & Missouri Kansas Chapter of the American Immigration Lawyers Association), and Kristine Walentik (Catholic Immigration Law Project) were among the evenings speakers.
The panelists examined how the Hernandez case impacts current immigration law in Missouri and other parts of the United States. Attorneys Ammann and Schmitt also discussed recent legislation surrounding Missouri's current debate over the implementation of an English-only drivers exam. Meanwhile, Kristine Walentik shared information on free legal aid available to immigrants who qualify.
