Through meticulous research and vivid storytelling, Dr. Smith reveals the tragic tale of these prisoners, captured in the heat of battle and condemned to a cruel and unusual fate: slavery in the heart of Mexico.

The Prisoners of War

As the Texan forces fought valiantly against the formidable Mexican army led by General Antonio López de Santa Anna, thousands of Texans were captured on the bloody battlefields. These men hailed from all walks of life, from wealthy landowners to humble farmers. They were fathers, brothers, and friends, torn from their families and thrown into a world of unimaginable hardship.

The conditions in which these prisoners were held were appalling. They were crammed into overcrowded prisons, where disease and starvation were rampant. They were subjected to brutal torture and humiliation, their spirits broken under the weight of oppression.

Santa Anna's Barbaric Decision

In a desperate attempt to crush the Texan rebellion, Santa Anna made a fateful decision: he would sell the prisoners of war into slavery. Thousands of these men were marched hundreds of miles into the unforgiving Mexican interior, where they were sold at auction to the highest bidders.

These prisoners endured unimaginable horrors as slaves. They were forced to labor in brutal conditions, from mining and construction to farming and livestock herding. They were denied basic human rights, treated as mere chattel by their Mexican masters.
