Hello.
The second return to Texas was in 1973.
I did real well in all the testing but was somewhat of an outcast, no desire for any of the contact sports and had a genuine interest in learning.
The true dopeheads were the white kids, the hippies.
There were a very small number of blacks in school and it was very clear that they did not belong.
I wanted a drivers license and was told that "If you make the (football) team you get your license".
The coach ran drivers ed and without the drivers ed approval you could not get a license prior to age 16.
So I used my other license and bought a Mexican license, riding a scooter and tractor around.
But there was indeed a court case that argued discrimination and Alamo Heights.

This was economic discrimination.
