NPR reported on the often overlooked history of economic populism in Texas.
Austin-based political commentator David Griscom authored a book titled The Myth of Red Texas, which explores this tradition in the state.
Griscom's work highlights how economic populism has shaped Texas politics and challenges common perceptions about the state's political identity.
The discussion was featured in an NPR segment where Rob Schmitz spoke with Griscom about these themes.
