I replied to "Applegrove" on their post on Dec 28th about "Ann Richards" and commented then about that documentary/movie.

I thought it should have been better recognized as what fearless and intelligent women they were.

It's truly sad to see how far Texas has fallen in the last 3 decades.

I loved spending time there, but I'll never spend another dollar there until the insanity stops.

If you haven't seen the movie, I beg you to find and watch it.
