    Consortium for the National Equal Justice Library Oral History Collection Interview with David Hall Conducted by Alan Houseman May 7, 2015 CNEJL: Hall oral history recorded 2015-05-07 Page 1 of 14 Alan Houseman: This is an oral history of David Hall, who's the executive director of Texas Rio Grande Legal Aid. The interviewer is Alan Houseman for the National Equal Justice Library. Today is May 7, 2015. Alan Houseman: David, tell me a little about your background: where you grew up, where you went to law school, how you got into legal aid work? David Hall: I grew up in a middle class home in Baytown, Texas. That's outside of Houston. Went to Robert E. Lee High School, which was right across the tracks from George Washington Carver High School. Perfectly segregated Southern background. My mother is from here in Travis County, and is of the first Anglo settlers in Travis County, so we go way back in Texas. I came up here to Austin, to the University of Texas undergraduate school in 1960, graduated in '64, went to law school, got married, went to the Peace Corps in Venezuela, learned some Spanish. Got out, came back and finished up law school. My last year of law school I spent pestering the old regional office of OEO that was here in Austin about when they were going to get something called Texas Rural Legal Aid (TRLA) organized. David Hall: Jim DeAnda was the principal functionary for the TRLA at the time. He was trying to get it organized under the auspices of the Texas Trial Lawyers Association, the plaintiffs bar.

  • What About Texas? the Forgotten Cause of Antonio
    WHAT ABOUT TEXAS? THE FORGOTTEN CAUSE OF ANTONIO ORENDAIN AND THE RÍO GRANDE VALLEY FARM WORKERS, 1966-1982 by TIMOTHY PAUL BOWMAN Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of The University of Texas at Arlington in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS IN HISTORY THE UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS AT ARLINGTON May 2005 CHAPTER 1 THE MAKING OF A HUELGISTA Antonio Orendain was born on May 28, 1930, in Etzatlán, Mexico.1 He was only educated through elementary school and often worked as an impoverished campesino (a Mexican farm worker). In 1950 at the age of twenty, Orendain entered California illegally. Hungry and broke, he heard that American farm owners suffered from a labor shortage following World War II. Like many of his compatriots, Orendain thought the United States was the “land of opportunity.” He crossed the border and entered San Ysidro, California, lured by rumors of farm workers making as much as $1.60 per hour –a sum which in Mexico was unheard of. To Orendain, the decision to cross the border illegally seemed logical: The worst part of it in Mexico [was] to be too close to the United States and so far away from God. If I [had] a great need in Mexico, I am pretty sure need is the mother of all inventions. And I was hungry and needy, and since I was so close to the United States, I [did not] have to invent some way in order to solve the problem. I didn’t have to break my head to solve the problem, because everybody said the United States was easy.

  • Large Print Exhibition Text the Struggle for Justice
    Large Print Exhibition Text The Struggle for Justice 1 The Struggle for Justice The history of American democracy has been one of increasing participation and inclusiveness. America transformed itself from thirteen states along the narrow line of the eastern seaboard, governed by elites, to a vast country governed by a large and heterogeneous population. One of the great achievements of this past century was a series of successful campaigns to strike down long-standing segregationist practices and discrimination in American society. While these changes ultimately became enacted in the nation’s courts and legislatures, the struggle to secure them was principally fought where intolerance reigned. As such, the nation’s polls, buses, schools, and countless other places became battlegrounds in the crusade for equal rights. The figures represented in this exhibition were important catalysts during a period that witnessed historic changes concerning the status of women; Native Americans, Latino Americans, and other ethnic groups; LGBT individuals; and persons with disabilities. Most striking perhaps was the progress achieved by African Americans. Although born in an earlier century, the civil rights struggle reached a crescendo in the 1950s and 1960s. Its triumphs recast the contours of American society and contributed to ongoing campaigns being waged to bring equal opportunity to all Americans. 2 Although not without setbacks, this expanding inclusiveness continues to be the defining characteristic of American democracy. 3 Russell Means (1939-2012) Born Pine Ridge, South Dakota Having helped to found the American Indian Movement in 1968, Lakota tribesperson Russell Means became the most visible leader for Native American rights during the late 1960s and 1970s, a period of heightened activism among tribal communities.
