Jannell Robles was born in 1987 in Northern Pasadena. She grew-up in an extended family environment. Robles recalls her family sharing stories of encounters with the Ku Klux Klan in Pasadena. After graduating from high school, she got involved in the Immigrant Rights Movement. Robles worked as an Immigrant Advocacy Coordinator for the Central American Resource Center, an Immigrant Outreach Coordinator for The Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund (MALDEF) in San Antonio, a Reconciliation Project Coordinator for the the Texas Criminal Justice Coalition, and as an intern for the Houston Interfaith Worker Justice Center's Build a Better Texas Campaign. She discusses the disparity of city services in North and South Pasadena, how Mexican American Studies at the University of North Texas set her on a community activist path, the rise of anti-immigrant bills after Arizona's SB 1070, addressing immigrant construction workers that are exposed to unsafe working conditions, and Secure Communities and the bridging of law enforcement and immigration enforcement. She also talks about how she worked to unite African Americans and Latinas/os around mutual issues, how Maria Jimenez served as a mentor to her, and how women's leadership style was more communal.

Bobby Caldwell was born in Dallas in 1934. He grew up in different areas of Dallas, and faced barriers with discrimination and health issues as he had polio at age 3. He moved to Houston to attend Texas Southern University, and in 1957, he earned his law degree. He began practicing law in the 1960s, and quickly became involved in defending student activists, beginning with SNCC. Mr. Caldwell also became involved in pressing HISD to include African American studies in their curriculum, a movement led by the NAACP. In the late 1960s and into the 1970s, he began defending more militant activists including the members of the Peoples Party II, the TSU Five, and other student movements across the country. In 2014, Caldwell received a Lifetime Award from the Black Panthers for his commitment to defend Houston's African American community.

Patricia "Pat" Gonzales was born in 1967 in Houston in the Gulfgate area. She moved to the toxic Manchester neighborhood, a predominately Latina/o area of town next to the oil refineries, after she graduated from high school. Gonzales became active in the environmental justice movement due to the health issues she acquired while living next to the refineries. She later worked for the Texas Organizing Project to address the lack of infrastructure in the Northern Pasadena area. Gonzales discusses the risk of explosions in Pasadena, attending EPA conferences and addressing environmental racism, how the Anglo power structure functions in Pasadena, and how both African Americans and Latinas/os are neglected. She also talks about the recent voting rights violations in Pasadena and how the city capitulates to the interests of the oil industry.
