@ashleytheebarroness: I thought I knew the story of the Alamo. Turns out I knew thirteen days… …out of a story that spans decades. History gets really interesting when you move the starting line.

I’ve lived in San Antonio for 16 yrs and I learned the real Alamo history 5 yrs ago. Locals get sooo mad when I speak the truth…

Thank you for this. As a Mexican American I had to learn this in college because TX high schools don’t teach this. We also suffered La Matanza of 1910-1920 where Texas rangers lynched any Mexican they found. If you’re brown and you support Republicans, it’s because you don’t know the history of the color of your skin

Figures that Mexico would have a black president a century before the 🇺🇸, it also had the 1st woman President and the US still pretends to be first world🤣🤣🤣

the only thing that matters about the Alamo is that Texans celebrate a defeat. what happened before and what happened after is irrelevant to the fact that the Alamo was a defeat. the Mexican army defeated the American colonizers.

I teach Texas history. All of this is correct, and I DO teach all this info in class. My students know about the role of slavery in the Texas Revolution. I will say there is a lot of nuance that is hard to put into short-form content, but you did a great job summarizing.

Remember that we are looking at history through 21st century eyes. World history is full of these sad stories. Slavery has a long long history.

I have lived in TX since 5th grade. My TX History class in 7th grade taught by a coach SURE didn’t tell the story this way. Thanks for sharing the un-whitewashed rest of the story 💙

That's the first time I've heard the truth about the Alamo. It seems it wasn't taught here in the UK either. At least not when I was at school, or, for that matter when my kids and grandkids were at school either. Thank you for putting things right

I have come to understand that “Americans” are rarely the good guys in any of the true history lessons are taught.

In the 80’s in Texas I spoke up about a lot of this in Texas history class. 5 days in school suspension and told to shut my damned mouth by my teacher. Truth . Love your posts. You are ridiculously smart.

Replying to @mom_tryingherbest If your insurance doesn’t cover their first dental visit before age 2 and you cannot afford the price your local pediatric dentist quotes, how can you work around the cost and still try to get baby seen by age 1?  First, ask your pediatrician if they can provide fluoride treatments (they may be covered under medical insurance). Then ask the dentist if you can decline the oral hygiene instruction/cleaning due to finances (this is beneficial and in an ideal world you’d do it, but if cost is keeping you away I’d rather your child be seen for just the exam than not at all)! ➡️ Request to be seen for only an exam to be sure the child does not have early signs of cavities or any other problems that you want to be made aware of. If any are identified, you can then address them early rather than in 1-2 years when insurance might cover them but the problems have become severe and far more costly to resolve. I know pediatricians look in the baby’s mouth but they are NOT trained to identify early signs of mouth diseases like tooth decay. Cavities appear as white lines at the beginning stages and are easily missed because the teeth look wet or shiny. Many offices will work with you if the fees for all services are too high for your current budget. Ask about cash pay discounts or adjusting the treatment provided. They may say no, but it never hurts to ask these questions and get your child’s teeth examined early.  Other low cost options are dental schools with pediatric dental programs or local free clinics and health departments.  🚩🚩 The ACA requires dental coverage for all children, so do some digging if your insurance is  claiming children aren't covered until age 2. That goes against both national dental organizations' (AAPD and ADA) and the AAP's recommendations for a child's first dentl visit to occur by 12 months of age at latest.  #pediatricdentist #newmomtips #babyteeth #newbaby #MomsofTikTok
