I am grateful to understand that our family and people like us helped shape our city and our state. I want more of our Texas students to feel the same way. They need to understand that they, too, can make the choice to give back to our great state, beginning in their own community.In 1950, my parents founded the Morales radio station, the first Spanish-language broadcast along the Gulf Coast.
The radio station brought together Spanish speakers from across the Houston area. KLVL was part of the history and growth of the Latino community in Segundo Barrio of Houston. That history makes me proud. Our children may not see their family name on a building, a business or in a textbook. This often means they do not see how their community played a role in shaping Texas; they might not understand how civic engagement starts in their own backyard, or how they are on the road to influencing the rest of this great state and nation.. This bill will count Mexican American Studies and African American Studies toward existing high school graduation requirements.
