Two of the greatest journalists I’ve ever had the privilege of working with. Alexa Ura Jolie McCullough We were all laid off today as Texas Tribune attempts to reverse financial and leadership tailspin.

Descendants of a prominent white family and a formerly enslaved couple are fighting over ownership — and the oil and gas royalties that would come with it — of an 147.5-acre tract that has bound and divided generations of their families. bit.ly/3sgp38L

I highly recommend reading Alexa Ura final story in today’s Texas Tribune She put a tremendous amount of thought and reporting into it, and we finished touching it up after learning we were to be laid off as the Trib struggles to overcome self-inflicted management turmoil.

After years spent cultivating the misanthropic curmudgeon editor genre, I’m now forced to be humbled and touched by everyone’s thoughtfulness and kindness, damnit.

From the managing editor level down, Texas Tribune remains a stronghold of bright, talented and dedicated journalists who will continue doing great work.
