Oh Contraire! “enjoy it for what it is” ignores the not so lightly underlying Political Correct re-write of an important part of our history.
As a student of Texas History who revers the larger than life sacrifices these Texas Revolution fighters that changed the world, this mini-series’ stupid farfetched scenery can be explained away as fictional poetic license living up to the old stereotype about Texas looking like the scenes from a John Wayne movie, but the serious political correct pretending that some half black prostitute who is, even as portrayed the storyline being a camp follower (hooker), has historically significant ‘relationships’ with Sam Houston and then Santa Anna and by inference had a large part in the outcome of the Battle of San Jacinto and Texas winning freedom, is beyond preposterous on any level.
The mere fact it is presented on the History Channel is intended to lend credence to this poorly disguised piece of liberal propaganda at the expense of all those brave Texans who fought and died to win a strong place for liberty and freedom.
The saddest part of this farce is that most people who watch this show will have no real clue about true the Texas Revolution history, many of which will take this tripe as fact to the detriment of those real Texas heros.
The only reason Houston`s army won at San Jacinto is because they were supported by that big Battleship that is moored in the channel.
