Brownsville, Texas was established in 1850 on the banks of the Rio Grande. Every February since 1938 this city of nearly 200,000 has joined its neighboring city across the river, Matamoros, Mexico, to celebrate their shared cultural heritage. Anthony Knopp, emeritus professor of history at the University of Texas at Brownsville, Manuel Medrano, professor of history at the University of Texas at Brownsville, and Priscilla Rodriguez, executive director of the Brownsville Historical Association provide a detailed history of this annual festival in Brownsville, Texas. Many photographs used in this history are from the archives of the Brownsville Historical Association.
