Good morning, Corpus Christi.

Community members gathered at the courthouse for the YWCA’s annual racial justice forum, reflecting on civil rights history and exploring current efforts to improve representation and voting rights.

The event stressed the need for ongoing civic dialogue and active leadership.

At the Corpus Christi MLK Day March, several participants warned that civil rights progress is at risk (one activist said, 'I think we are going backwards in sixth gear').

Residents in Flour Bluff have raised concerns after repeated fires near homes during cold snaps; city leaders acknowledged the pattern following Sunday's incident and said the cause remains under review — officials will update once more details emerge.

An authentic cannon from the 1836 Battle of the Alamo is coming home after a local family member recovered the long-missing artifact - the return ties Corpus Christi closely to its rich history.

On MLK Day, the legacy of Claudette Colvin is celebrated as she challenged segregation and inspired change.

A civil rights pioneer who lived in the Coastal Bend, she is honored for her lasting impact.

The estate of Tejano legend Emilio Navaira shared mock-up images that suggest a future exhibit honoring his legacy.

The project remains in early stages as the estate teases more details soon.

If you see smoke today, it may be from a planned prescribed burn on the bayside of Mustang Island State Park.
