(9,874 posts)Part of the hagiography that passed for history in my schooling of the 1950s and 60s. Along with the Lost Cause of the Confederacy.
Most people dont have a clue about how we got here.

(5,776 posts)The only things I remember from the visit:
1. There were signs all over the place reminding you that it was a sacred spot, so please do not take photographs (but if you really wanted one, they were for sale at the gift shop).
2. As I joined my group, who were already at the pinball arcade across the street, I noticed the markers in the ground denoting the original location of The Alamo before they moved it to improve traffic flow.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
