Francis Drake (1540–1596) English sea captain, privateer, navigator, slaver, and politician of the Elizabethan era

“I have a strange love and affinity for South Texas and Texas in general. I carry a bit of dissonance for loving a place so many people outside of Texas hate.

But the Texas I know, the people I know, the experiences I’ve lived don’t always sync up with the image of Texas at the moment.”
