Remember the Alamo

One of the highlights of my recent trip was finally getting to see an illustration subject in person. Back when Jessica and I created our On a Mission Dead Feminist broadside a few years ago, we did a ton of research about San Antonio and the Alamo—but neither of us had ever actually been there in person. So you can imagine how much I geeked out when I visited the place—especially when I saw a plaque explaining how our girl Adina De Zavala is responsible for saving and preserving the place.

Here’s hoping there are many more Dead Feminist field trips in the future!
