The Texas Center
United States
Приєднався 8 гру 2021
The Texas Center at Schreiner University offers opportunities for students and the general population to learn and appreciate the uniqueness of Texan history, culture, and people. With population projections estimating tremendous growth in the state over the next three decades, this project becomes even more important. A place of learning is needed where newcomers can understand what they are inheriting, what they are building upon, as they too contribute to the rich heritage and ongoing history of the Lone Star State.
The Texas Center is where the future of Texas gets made. We offer a best-in-its-field educational
ecosystem aimed at Texas students and those who love them. We call it E Pluribus, Texas™. Out
of many, one Texas.

Good job!
See text at 2:38. Are you sure the plural of her name, Hobby, is Hobbies and not Hobby’s?

Fantastic video, I am showing this to my Texas History class today!
GREAT video! The narrator sounds like someone we know. We're very proud of you.
I'm from the Kansas Kickapoo tribe
Hey sir, I’m a direct McFadden. My uncle and dad are still alive. I’ve got some great family lore for you. Contact me.
Sounds very interesting! Shoot us an email over here at our homepage: thetexascenter.org/ Thank you!
My great uncle is still alive too. He’s about 80. Family lore is, my great great grandfather McFadden was the county hangman. He was shot in the back while inside the family dairy barn. Which I believe still stands. If you would like to talk to my dad, uncle, and great uncle I’m sure there’s plenty of unsung history you would love to hear.
What tf is Hank hill doing a voice over 😂
THANK YOU!!! 🙏
This is fantastic. Best explanation I’ve ever heard.

Thanks for the video. I was there with my son, playing the drums.
Ronneby 'vierundneunzig' Hello Fredrik MALMBERG I am of the opinion that work can begin on Swordsmanship Multiplayer, not with TPS reports, but with a TPH 'Third Person Hacker' SONDERHEFT. This would be the best season to begin, as FPS CLAN guides, Hockey SONDERHEFTE, Soccer SONDERHEFTE, & Basketball SONDERHEFTE have recently hit newsstands. I am in email correspondence with Gamer Jock & writer William King. This realm of sport & the book business seem to me as connected as they were in '94, when many significant decisions about Sword & Sorcery and Multiplayer were made. I am reachable here & also on business media. In my opinion, multiplayer and SONDERHEFT can effectively synchronize this system network of ours: Sword & Sorcery.
Long ass time ago in a town called kickapoo
Its has to be something to do with that lyric because in the movie song they showed him travelling from Missouri to hollywood
LONGASS FUCKING TIME AGO IN A TOWN CALLED KICKAPOO!!!
I’ve always been so curious about its history. I live in Shelby county and come to Nac often.
Reference of the Sante Fe Expedition: The sympathy which exists in behalf of Texas at the south, looks to other objects than the mere defence of that country. Texas is desired as an appendage to the strength of the south. They wish it annexed to the union, that the balance of power may still be found on the feeble side of • Mason and Dixon's line: Once let the cry for succor be rung through the land and the annexation of Texas they imagine will be as easy as it is desirable. So reasons the south. Let the north reason otherwise. The Texians are not deserving of aid or sympathy The invasion of that country by Santa Anna, is not unprovoked but It is in a great measure justified, in retaliation for the Santa Fe expedition, which had for its avowed purpose the subjugation and pillage of Mexico. The Texians have provoked the assault, and now they must abide the consequences, unless a fool-hardy and absurd idea prevails, that we must succor these men, because Texas affords a refuge for outlaws and desperadoes for the whole continent of North America! Texas at all hazards, union or no union, must be had to be kept out! The Texas lot was the most bare faced high handed outraged ever recorded on the page of history, to which there is no legal or moral justification, and has no resemblance to anything we know of, save South Carolina nullification! -Phila.

Frazier the suburb!
Read all the novels in the series so far really great and informative! Can’t wait for more books to come out.
So cool ,i live in texas😊
Thanks for posting this outstanding program!
Thank you Mr. Woodul and the Texas Center for keeping and sharing these treasures.
Everything in texas has thorns on it hell on horses and women
Thank u so much for videos!! I homeschool and u have been a big help!! ❤
We love to hear that! That's what we are here for!
That’s not true Gregorio was buried right under Santa Anna nose
That’s. Not true Enrique was buried
Men's version of his-tory. I'm tired of hearing poor soldiers.. What the women? The SA done to them? This is never talked about. Why? Because men are the SA... 😢
The meanness went all directions. My 2nd Great Grandfather, Captain Stephen Carter Ragan and family moved to Tyler TX, to escape the hostilities in Kansas City MO. In 1859. He joined the Army of Texas for a short time, however when Texas seceded, he formed a Calvary unit under Johnson. His company was comprised of family members, including nephews and cousins. They fought many battles throughout the south, including the siege of Vicksburg, Chickamauga, the battle of Atlanta and Mobile AL. He went on to be a two term State Senator in MO, and served as Undersheriff for KC MO for two terms. My family still has relatives in the Tyler area to this day. God Bless Texas!
No offense but i don't trust our government handling nuclear power. The Japanese are far more disciplined and look what happened to them. Fukushima!!! Same with Russia Chernobyl.... 😮
Im in west Texas and this year we been having a lot of scorpions 😮 scary, also sun spiders!! Just wanted to add that for no reason 😂❤
❤❤❤❤
Thank u for this
Talk about Build it and they will come…
Nice Production!…
Thank you for providing this comprehensive overview of Texas.
I know you looked at the comments 😊
What is incredibly incongruous is that th the US allowed Santa Anna to live on Staten Island in the middle 1870's making money as a manufacturer of chewing gum.
Actually there are a couple of reasons Molten Salt Reactors were not continued, in addition to the need for rapid development of Rickover's submarines. Nixon was apparently told he would not get funding for both the California project and the Oak Ridge MSR project. Because Nixon did not want to cut off the supplies of Plutonium for thermonuclear weapons primaries, he chose fast breeders as the one to fund. And, of course, being a Californian as well as being pressured by a Californian politician, the Oak Ridge MSR research was shut down.
The best-spent 90 minutes of this year for me so far! I was blown away when you brought up the name of Ernst Beseler as he is my great-grandfather! I had never heard this story about him and it still has my mind blown. Also, two other Beselers were among the massacred at Nueces River and have their names inscribed on the monument in Comfort.
In Junior High in Brownwood (in the early '50's) we were given a clean map of the State outline and another one with the county outlines. The task was to draw in all 254 counties on the clean map. Things went well as you started in the panhandle and far West Texas but by the time you got to central and then East Texas the remaining area bore no resemblance to the needed space!
Very impressive presentation by a true Texan.

I've never been to Texas but I was curious what happened after so thank you.
You left out *how* they killed the infant child...it was gruesome and terribly brutal. Great information, but there's no need for the cartoonish sound effects
When will Funcom realise that Conan is the IP that bring them money? what a dream if they had put the budget of Dune Awakining into this game
Loved the lecture and story about something that is not typically told. I'm a Texas history teacher and will definitely tell my students about this story. I am also working towards my doctoral degree and would love to help the Texas Center in any way possible.
Great information thank you! I live 10 minutes away from Anahauc!
