One of the greats of our time!!🪶✨🙌🏽✨

Former San Antonio poet laureate Nephtalí De León sued the Alamo City and Krystal Jones, director of the Arts & Culture Department, over his firing last year.

The lawsuit alleged his firing was in violation of his protected free speech. It also said the city violated its contract with De León by firing him without notice, and without giving De León the opportunity to explain himself.

On Aug. 1, 2023, De León posted to Facebook a poem honoring Roberto “Cintli” Rodríguez, a friend and professor of Latin American Studies who had recently died. In that poem, De León used a slang term for Black people.

That criticism led to the poet laureate's termination a few days later.

De León maintained that the phrase was not intended as an insult.

A legend that is long overdue credit and needs acknowledgment. I call him my uncle Charlie..

Charlie Hettric one of the masterminds behind the sounds (on bass) and engineering techniques, master touch of the times in the great influence of this grand American genre of Tex-Mex/Tejano music. Charlie stood at the transitions of the times, over the decades and hands-on cultivated the modern platforms along with my father for which this industry now greatly benifits. So many things to list along with new ideas, sounds and designs for live and in house/studios and what now the Tejano/Conjunto Tex-Mex music industry is blessed with!!

✨🎶🪗 It is my honor to acknowledge my Uncle Charlie Hettric!! “El Charro Blanco”!!🎶🪗✨

More insight soon!!
