Lectures at The Bryan: E Pluribus Texas

Texas history is changing—and classrooms across the state are changing with it. Historian Dr. Donald S. Frazier brings the conversation to The Bryan with a lively look at the new Texas social studies standards, how they reshape the stories students will encounter in the classroom, and why it matters far beyond the textbook.
Drawing from the work of *E Pluribus Texas*—the educational video series created by The Texas Center—Dr. Frazier explores a richer, wider view of Texas history: one filled with the voices, cultures, conflicts, and communities that helped shape both Texas and the American story itself.
Built for educators but fascinating for anyone who loves Texas history, this presentation digs into the challenges of teaching the past honestly while keeping it engaging, human, and unmistakably Texan. Expect sharp insight, compelling stories, and plenty to talk about long after the evening wraps up.
