      Thank you! We should all raise a glass to the sacrifice she made, I'm not a woman, but I imagine giving your body away like that for the greater good of an entire, at that point, country, was not small thing for her to do.

    I learned of this story in high school. My history teacher was surprised that i was the only student that fully understood the story about Emily D West. 😅 his face when i yelled out "wait they used a women to win the battles?" His face was shock and pride that ill never forget. 😅 💛🌹 it wasnt until now did i ever think of using yellow rose as a way to keep her name known. Well at least in my life.
    Our dearest Emily! I will forever request yellow roses in your honor! 🍻🤠💛🌹

    I went to High School in Dallas in the 70's, where we had two years of Texas history...Ms. West was taught to us as a true heroine...a woman that had a pivotal role in Texas independence...she is sung about in the famous "Yellow Rose of Texas"...She is a Texas icon!!!!

    I remember learning about her in Texas History. My teacher and coach started off by saying, "They didn’t include this part in the textbook."

    I wonder why you made her dark skinned black girl when she was a light skinned biracial?

    LOVE it, but you forgot to include the song made famous by the University of Texas - The Yellow Rose of Texas! Emily West was that mulatto, the Yellow Rose’. At least include the words, it makes Texans’ hearts sing❤️

      Yes I know I'm so sorry!! I didn't want to make the video TOO long. I really did want to include this, It was in my original script. Then I thought to myself, "Does it really add to the history?" I'm sorry to disappoint you! But it's a great song!

    The story of Emily West is an exciting, legend, but just a legend, it is not true credible evidence that Emily West was captured by the Mexican army, serve as a spy, or had any connection with Santa Anta. to learn the true story of the yellow rose of Texas, check out my video about the song.
