Local documentary sheds new light on Texas history

This week On The Record with Randy Beamer, we visit with Mayor Gina Ortiz Jones, who talks about the city’s recently-passed budget, public health, and her continued concerns about Project Marvel, including the ballot language that doesn’t disclose the $311-million dollar price tag.Next, we visit with documentary producer Brandon Seale about his project the Battle of Medina. We’ll hear about the surprising finds he has uncovered just south of San Antonio, and why so many people have never even heard of this bloody battle.On Reporter’s Roundtable, Michael Karlis, reporter for the San Antonio Current, shares details on his story about the public relations push by the Spurs to get voter support for Proposition B, and why the Spurs borrowed a hyper-local restaurant dish to garner attention. On The Record airs 7 p.m. Thursdays. Watch on-air (channel 9.1) or online via the PBS app.  Watch all past episodes by visiting https://video.klrn.org/show/klrn-on-the-record/Generous support for On The Record on KLRN is provided by Steve and Adele Dufilho.
