Denton's Pioneer Woman Statue: Patriarchy, Public Memory, And The Texas Centennial Of 1936, Light Townsend Cummins

This article details the rise of inclusion politics amongst Mexican American activists and Anglo American reformers, and illuminates the tensions rooted in ideological hemispheric unity developed amidst racial subjugation in early twentieth-century Texas.
