Institute of Texan Cultures: Behind the Lone Star

Japanese farmers. Italian cowboys. Black Indians. Jewish oil tycoons. This program on the Institute of Texan Cultures at the University of Texas, San Antonio, explores multiculturalism, Texas-style—a big, big story that embraces the Native Americans, Mexicans, and Tejanos of the region and the 19th-century European immigrants processed through the port of Galveston. Using exhibits, programs, and publications that encourage appreciation of people’s differences as well as their common humanity, the institute provides a forum for the dynamics of diversity.

One 28-minute video.
