2014 Battle of San Jacinto Symposium

San Jacinto Battleground Conservancy

Battle of San Jacinto Symposium

Saturday, April 12, 2014, 9 am to 4 pm, at The Ripley House in Houston

(Patrons' Party at 6 pm on Friday, April 11, 2014 for those registering as Patrons)  

The 2014 San Jacinto Symposium looks at the Texas Revolution through the eyes of native-born Tejanos who fought for independence from Mexico alongside "newcomers" from the U.S. and Europe.  Six Texas history scholars tackle what has evolved into a somewhat off-kilter memory of the Texas Revolution - that it was simply Anglos against Mexicans.
