It all started in Mrs. Hagood’s Government class at Lubbock High! This would have been in the winter of 1966 or 67! Mando Yanez, El Changio (Bobby Aguilar-RIP), El Lupio (Lupe Urive), Mickey, and yours truly Mike Torres, started talking football! Pretty soon the bragging started about which barrio was better at football; El Barrio Guadalupe or the Hub Homes vatos!
We are a group of community conscience individuals that span multiple generations which allows us to have a unique insight to the North Texas Latino community. Our goal is to inform, educate and in some instances provide a Call to Action!
We know there are no other Latino theme publications that cover the variety of subjects, history or issues as does Hola Texas. Whether there is the history of the Chicano Rights Movement to Latinos on TV or at the Movies to new Marijuana laws and how they may affect the community.
