State museum examining slavery s role in Battle of the Alamo after Texas GOP leaders complained

State museum examining slavery s role in Battle of the Alamo after Texas GOP leaders complained BBY LIVINGSTON AND ISABELLA ZOU, The Texas Tribune July 2, 2021 FacebookTwitterEmail A promotional event for a book examining the role slavery played leading up to the Battle of the Alamo that was scheduled at the Bullock Texas State History Museum on Thursday evening was abruptly canceled three and a half hours before it was scheduled to begin. Authors of the book, titled “Forget the Alamo,” and the publisher, Penguin Random House, say the cancellation of the event, which had 300 RSVPs, amounts to censorship from Republican elected leaders and an overreaction to the book’s examination of racism in Texas history.
