Ep. 142: A Disturbing Set of Events (Anahuac, 1832)
In 1832, things in Texas were chaotic to say the least. There was conflict between centralists and federalists on two fronts. The Texas settlers wanted their freedoms and opposed the chaos that was the Mexican government. Within the Mexican government, there was conflict between Mexico City and the state governments. Trouble was brewing. In Anahuac, Col. Juan Davis Bradburn added fuel to the fire by jailing first and asking questions later. He jailed a State Commissioner, then he arrested William B. Travis. Disturbances ensued…and revolution was near. Hear about the Anahuac Disturbances in this episode of Wise About Texas.
