From the birth of a Freedom Rider to the origins of a literary legend, from the search for a murdered mother's memories to passing our abilities and disabilities along to our children, the pieces here are as varied and nuanced as the city its authors have called home at one time or another. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThey might not all take place in Texas, but every story has roots in its streets, suburbs, and history. Whether it's an account of being stranded in Uganda, growing up in a Mexican border barrio, catching swine flu in Thailand, being among Harvard University's first Black architecture students, growing up in Iran, or leaving India for a new life in Texas, each story has a soul that is \u003ci\u003epuro\u003c\/i\u003e San Antonio.
