Texas Freeze
Description
An account of the resource
Texas Freeze is a unique collection created in the immediate aftermath of the polar vortex that devastated the lives of many Texans in February 2021. This community-based collection hears from working class people of color, community organizers across Texas, and essential workers. Many Texans were not prepared for the winter storm and felt abandoned by our elected officials, leaning on mutual aid networks to survive.
The Texas Freeze has fostered conversations about climate change, the electric grid system, emergency management, and the impact on underprivileged communities. Although the warm sunshine has returned, the storm’s remnants will haunt parts of the state for months or even years to come. The storm’s impact on finances, health and homes will not simply fade away.
Oral History

Winnie speaks about her experience with racism in a small town in Iowa and how she was not prepared to encounter similar situations in Austin, a city that boasts of its diversity and inclusivity. Winnie also discusses a week-long power outage, icy roads, and a shortage of water during the polar vortex. Winnie recommends that communities come together to hold our government accountable and pay close attention to who’s really taking care of everyone.
