i used to draw the star, cowboys and indians, mexicans and texans. [laughter] >> and as i have gotten older, i have started to come of the last 25 years, read every book i can. i found out a lot more, that it was not just black and white, or as it was betrayed by hollywood or disney. there were over romanticized films, beautiful as they were -- i have learned it was not quite as black and white. and that is one of the things i think would be good in this day and age to refer to. we have to put it in context. there were brave men on both sides of the war. the gray bits makeup the story. that is what i am hoping this master plan will do, because there are a lot of prejudices and in this day and age it needs to be much more addressed. it is a wonderful place, and i am totally obsessed by it. i am still collecting things from the alamo. >> i remember you told me once, the first time you saw the alamo was like meeting the beatles. >> it was. i first came here in 1974. it was me and peter gabriel and we had a day off each. three or four days off and i said

[laughter] as i've gotten older, i've years, to -- the last 25 i have read every book i can. i've found out a lot more. it was not quite as black and white as it was portrayed by hollywood. in john wayne's over romanticized films, as beautiful as it was. i loved it was not quite as black and white. that is one of the things i think would be good in this day and age. thatt it into context there were brave men on both sides. bits that make up this story. .hat is what i am very keen on prejudices lot of that still exist. in this day and age, it all needs to be much more addressed. it is a wonderful place. i'm totally obsessed by it. collecting as well. the firstd me once, time you saw the alamo was like meeting a beatle. phil: it was. 1973, itrst came in was me and peter gabriel and our tour manager and we had two to three days off. i said we have to go to the alamo. you could drive -- you could the alamo was on my left. it was a time i saw it wonderful experience and it still is. . go t

there is some evidence, and we should be careful here, some evidence that the mexican indians viewed europeans as being virtually superhuman. it seemed there was among them a variety of ancient myths and legends about white skinned gods who would one day come as conquerors, and they may have seen the spaniards in something like that way. perhaps, too, they could easily fit certain empirical facts into this picture -- the deadly power of spanish guns, the skills involved in spanish horsemanship , the size and versatility of spanish ships, and maybe most important , the relative advantage of spaniards to resist those epidemic diseases which proved so devastating to indians. all of those are possibly taken as godlike element. if this was truly the case, if the aztecs did conclude that the spaniards were godlike, it could certainly have undermined their fighting spirit and been at least part of the reason for their ultimate defeat. please notice my use of the word "if" in there, because i'm not completely convinced myself. this whole newer line of cultural explanation for conquest seems,
