His passion for Tejano history began when he started researching roots of his own family. Texas Tejano has also expanded its discoveries by hosting exhibits across the state and inside the state capitol, produced historical documentaries, published books and put on plays. “It’s an incredible legacy and heritage to know, to have, and it’s an inspiration because it gives us identity,” Rodriguez said. “We developed Texas, we’ve built it and we’re still here.”Related Hispanic Heritage stories:Here’s why Hispanic Heritage Month starts in the middle of SeptemberNonprofit kicks off Hispanic Heritage Month with free virtual events25 influential Latinos in San Antonio
