April 14: GARNA CHRISTIAN on the Yellow Rose of Texas : “Print The Legend “

In popular thought, "The Yellow Rose of Texas" musically describes a heroine of the Texas Revolution, Emily Morgan, who sealed independence from Mexico on the banks of the San Jacinto on April 21, 1836, despite an absence of evidence for the act or her existence. How did history's love for irony and improbability pair an indistinctive minstrel song and a barroom story to forge an enduring myth of Texana?

Adult Discussion Group will be meeting in person @ 9:45AM in Thoreau’s Clark Cabin except on the third Sunday of each month when we will meet in the Sanctuary @ 11AM.

The AC and HEPA filter will be running to keep Clark Cabin & the Sanctuary as safe as possible.

For those that prefer: We will provide ZOOM via the OWL system when we meet in the cabin & our Moderator Tamara will recognize your hand up and add you to the queue.

Thoreauvians and friends will be notified each week (tuucannounce@groups.io) of our ADG topic, time and zoom login.
Please keep an eye out for our notices.
