Texas Debates Confederate License Plates

The Takeaway

The Texas DMV will decide on Thursday whether to accept a license place with the Confederate flag on it. Texas would become the 10th state to approve a Confederate flag vanity plate –  applications are pending in three others.  Hernán Rozemberg, senior correspondent and San Antonio bureau chief for Fronteras, discusses the details of the story. Fronteras is a multimedia collaboration focusing on the southwestern border between Mexico and the United States, lead by KJZZ in Phoenix and KPBS  in San Diego.
