🌽When it comes to conservation, indigenous chefs, foods and traditions have long been leading the way. With the dinner table at @LuckReunion as a platform, @chef_wahpepah @nitaohoyo & Sewa Yuli let the food do all the talking.

The podcast is really good, by the way! @HoustonPubMedia should release it and let its listeners decide whether Walsh was biased

[María Méndez @anxious_maria]

Excited to hear from great panelists like @MsKCabrera, who has explored the topic in her reporting & interviewed author @JONNYescribe: https://t.co/CCWk9bWIgd

+ filmmaker Alejandra Vasquez, whose documentary "Going Varsity In Mariachi" is now on Netflix!

@allyson_renee7 and I: There are a few books and a film related to mariachi music in Texas. What if we had a panel about that?

[Texas Tribune @TexasTribune]

Don’t miss “We the Texans: More Than Music,” part of Open Congress at The Texas Tribune Festival, Saturday, Sept. 7. José Torres-Ramos, @JONNYescribe and Alejandra Vasquez discuss how mariachis tell the story of everyday Texas with moderator @MsKCabrera.

[Francesca D’Annunzio @FrancescaDnunz]

Thank you to @TexasStandard @AngelaKBorder for sharing our @TexasObserver story on Texas DPS' plan for a five-year, $5.3 million USD contract for Tangles, a AI-powered surveillance tool that can track phones without a court order.

For the 2nd time, a federal court struck down a regulator’s authorization of two controversial, multi-billion-dollar gas export projects in far South Texas

The court wrote, “Although we do not take this step lightly, the circumstances here require it.”

Would you have a picnic on I-35?

Austin and UT are planning to build parks on I-35 after TxDOT lowers the main lanes. What would that look like? I wondered.

So I went to Dallas, where a park named after a billionaire's son could be a model for Austin. 🧵

🚨🚨🚨BREAKING: FBI agents are currently at various Delia’s Tamales locations conducting “court authorized” law enforcement activity.
The company is currently embroiled in a wage theft civil suit, but it appears fed law enforcement is also investigating.

Once again, @HidalgoCountyTX is seeking to withhold public records from me & is seeking a @TXAG opinion to do so.

What did I request? Payments to contractors that were normally part of meeting agenda packets until I started reporting on construction projects delayed by years.

✨ I'm trying to collect the infinity stones of arts reporting.

🎨Art, 🌮Food, ✍️Writing, 🎶Music...
and now 🩰Dance!

But seriously this was so such a beautiful performance and great group of people.

⬇️Please give it a listen/share. @TexasStandard

Some Houston firefighters have been waiting for nearly a decade for today’s decision.

They’ll start receiving back payments next month. @HoustonPubMedia

Absolutely love how unsettling and ... well, GROSS this performance is. (And to understand WHY a show about Berlin in the 1920s would lean toward the grotesque, watch my new video on Cabaret: https://t.co/t8JeJc0yL9 )

Thanks to @MsKCabrera & show host Dr. David Brown for the opportunity to speak about #RGV politics.

Gaige is a phenomenal and dedicated reporter.

You've no doubt been thinking about ways to cover the long-overlooked Rio Grand Valley.

Solution: Hire him ⬇️

[Gaige Davila @GaigeDavila]

I was laid off a week ago today by Texas Public Radio. I very much appreciate the support I've gotten from my colleagues across the state. I plan on continuing the several stories I was working on through freelancing.

📻"I never thought our culture would be highlighted this much on a main stage," says Clint Westwood, San Antonio.

"Being able to highlight Latino and lowriding culture to a wider range of audiences. It's a beautiful thing."

The @TXAG told SCOTUS that Shelby Park has "reopened for recreational use."

Some locals quibble: "That’s bullshit ... Whoever wrote that is a fucking liar.” https://t.co/rhawZ5WdkH @FrancescaDnunz

Police have arrested at least a dozen demonstrators at an encampment on the south lawn of UT Austin’s campus. An attempt to “occupy” the campus last week led to 57 arrests. https://t.co/nFHifCc8SY

[Maya Fawaz @mayagfawaz]

Texas State University students have gathered to join the wave of demonstrations on college campuses across the U.S.

Organizers say the “Sit In for Palestine” event will be peaceful and include music, guest speakers and a march.

More to come.
