"Millions of Texans are convinced that their primary enemies are other Americans, and that the American experience in this age and generation has been a total failure, their own prosperity notwithstanding." - Theodore White, writing in The Reporter, “Texas: Land of Wealth and Fear,” 08 June 1954.

1954. (Emphasis mine.)
