In this episode, we explore the rich heritage of the San Antonio Missions—Texas’s first UNESCO World Heritage site, designated on July 5, 2015. Nestled within the San Antonio Missions National Historical Park, these historic missions are more than stone and mortar; they are living stories of cultural fusion, resilience, and transformation. Learn how Spanish missionaries and Indigenous peoples forged complex relationships that still echo through the American Southwest today. Through tours, exhibits, and community events, the park keeps these legacies alive, inviting us all to reflect on our shared past and how it shapes our collective future. Join us as we uncover the enduring spirit of the San Antonio Missions.
