Poll: is Texas the south?

[Jparker]

I thought I was bugging so I went back to read you comments and you said “NC is not in the South”

Am I correct? If so explain.

Show me the quote

I remember saying there is a difference in someone being from the south and a southerner

I’m from NC and I don’t consider it the south. Southern influences but not the south. I also have this convo a lot so

So what exactly are you saying here? I’m not the only one who questioned you when you made this statement.

Got into Austin today. The dry heat, cloudless skies, the abundance of cacti and agave plants, the limestone buildings, abundance of Mexicans and the brown brush and general brown landscape gives me Southwestern vibes more than Southern vibes. It had been a couple years since I been back out here. They got In And Out Burger everywhere, Carl Jr's, and palm trees. Am I in Texas or California?

Deep East TX is most definitely not just the south, but the deep south. It's culturally no different from the Louisiana side of the border. Nacagdoches, TX --> Natchitoches, LA share more culture and history with each other than they do with other parts of their respective states going all the way back to colonial times.

SETX(from the golden triange to houston) like others have mentioned are easily apart of the southern gulf coast "western creole" cultural sphere especially as it pertains to Afr'Ams. The cooking, the architecture(shotgun houses), the geography, the music, the accents all fall squarely into that category. Remember, Juneteenth was created here.

And even central TX is historically apart of the "western" south. There are numerous historial freedmen settlements in the Austin metro area. And slaves even built the state capitol building in Austin.

And the black cowboy tradition in TX has more Florida, Louisiana, and Carolina roots than Mexican roots.

Texas was part of the confederate states, so yes?

so was southern New Mexico and southern Arizona

 

[daemonova]

Sigh............

Texas is considered the south because of one very important and factual event that took place....THE CIVIL WAR. Not what you think about the culture of Texas which you probably have not even experienced first hand. Ya'll have to know that cowboys are found all over the SOUTH. .

Doc Holiday was born in Georgia
