One of the most infamous protests in San Antonio was the 1938 Pecan Shellers Strike. Approximately 12,000 shellers, primarily Hispanic women, protested low wages and poor working conditions. There were big confrontations, but the National Guard was not called in.

Gov. Greg Abbott confirmed he is deploying the National Guard to Texas cities with planned anti-ICE protests, which have followed those in LA.

Around 4:30 p.m., the Texas National Guard was seen arriving at Alamo Plaza. Earlier in the week, Gov. Greg Abbott announced he was sending more than 2,000 Texas DPS troopers and 5,000 Texas National Guard soldiers to cities around Texas to help local law enforcement amid the protests.
