Who was Juan Seguin?

He was one of the heroes of the Texas revolution, fighting on the side of the Texans despite his being from a prominent Tejano family and an upstanding Mexican citizen. He survived the Alamo because he was sent out for reinforcements after the first siege. Later he was a Senator, the Mayor of San Antonio, Bexar County Justice of the Peace, and Wilson County Judge.

He eventually left Texas because of the duality of his citizenship rather than his heroism during and after the revolution. The Texas town of Seguin, near San Antonio, is named after him. A large monument depicting him in his glory days now stands in the Seguin Central Park.

Juan Seguin was mixed. On one hand, he was recognized as the Alamo hero, on the other, he was often labeled as traitor, both by Texans and Mexicans.27.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
