Salt, Blood & Betrayal: A Forgotten Battle for Texas' White Gold | Wild West Documentary

Описание: In 1877, deep in West Texas near the Guadalupe Mountains, a forgotten war exploded over something as simple—and as powerful—as salt. What began as a dispute over access to vital salt lakes turned into one of the most intense and overlooked conflicts of the Wild West: the Texas Salt War.
This gripping documentary uncovers the true story of how local Tejano communities fought to protect their ancestral rights against powerful businessmen who sought to privatize Texas’ “White Gold.” Betrayal, gunfire, political corruption, and cultural resistance collided in San Elizario, leaving behind bloodshed and a legacy erased from most history books.
