Despite the well-known history of racism and bigotry in early Texas, ethnic
relationships were more complex than this single dimension. Provide three examples
that demonstrate the racial harmony and cooperation that existed in Texas from the
1500’s to the end of the Civil War- Be sure to include evidence and examples of this
harmony and cooperation from Spanish-owned Texas (through 1821 "Section 1“),
Mexican-owned Texas (1821 - 1836 'Section 2"), and “Anglo”-owned Texas (1836
1865 'Section 3"). In other words, include one example of racial cooperation or
harmony from each of the periods listed above. No points will be awarded for
examples of hatred, violence, or discord.
