In November, 2021, the WITH Forum began a cooperative arrangement with the Texas State Historical Association to provide entries about Texas women from TSHA’s Handbook of Texas Women. You will find a link to the article in the Handbook itself if you want to explore it and other entries. We will offer one new entry per month, and links to those that are no longer posted will allow you to find the ones you may have missed.

The murder of George Floyd on May 25, 2020 sparked something in us all. It’s not that police brutality is something new. It isn’t. History shows that this is not an isolated case. It doesn’t just happen in Minneapolis—it happens in Texas, too. Historical evidence of police brutality, excessive use of force and deaths of African American, Latino, and Indigenous people is older than Texas. What is different is two-fold: we see it now because of videos and social media. And because of quarantine due to the pandemic, we have more time to watch and to respond.
