Published Columbus Inquirer in Georgia,1828-1835. From the Jan. 14, 1832, page 2. The vitriol just pours out the editorial whose column nearly runs the length of the page. A selection: “While we yield to none in devotion to the fairer part of God’s creation, we must be permitted By Ed to say, that there is upon all the earth Sebesta nothing which we regard with more utter abhorrence than those same said mongrels. Woman’s sphere is not to be found amid the tumults of political contention.”

Published Columbus Inquirer in Georgia,1828-1835.
Nov. 16, 1833, page 2. The editors of the Enquirer have obtained an abolitionist newspaper and a pamphlet.
The abolitionists they state, “are fools, or knaves, or By Ed both.” They are horrified that they advocate abolishing Sebesta slavery in Washington D.C. and interstate commerce in slaves. The editors warn “Thus the Fanatics will proceed, from one step to another,” and that these steps are, “the ominous prelude to other encroachments.” By Edward H. Sebesta 2020
Worked to defend slavery. In his Dec. 10, 1838 Inaugural Speech as President of the Texas Republic is against Texas annexation since he fears for the safety of slavery in the United States.
But on the contrary a long train of consequences of the most appalling character and magnitude, have never failed to present themselves whenever I have entertained By Ed Sebesta the subject,
The reason is that he fears the abolitionists in the USA. … a tributary vassal to remote and uncongenial communities; communities as widely separated from her in pursuits as in distance, who are known to be opposed to her peculiar and essential interests, and who are daily sending forth their denunciations against her from the fire-side, the pulpit and the council chamber; By Edward H. Sebesta 2020
Worked to defend slavery. In 1844 he reverses his position and publishes a letter in favor of annexation because he fears British abolitionists will make Texas a free state and it will help defend slavery in the South. He defends slavery:
I believe the system of servitude as it exists in the Southern States, and in Texas, is the best relation By which Ed Sebesta has ever been established between the laboring and the governing portions of mankind. There is an unint[el]ectual toil to be performed, and menial service to be rendered; and it is infinitely better (whenever it is practicable) to assign those duties to that class of our species whom Providence has so signally fitted for the task, … That there shall be in society such a division as master and servant is a law of God ; and He has clearly indicated the line of distinction between them by colour and character.

Threatened the Nation of Nicaragua In a letter to the Nicaraguan Minister for Foreign Relations, Gregorio Juarez, Lamar threaten that if the Nicaraguans didn’t accede to American demands for rights of transit they would eventually be overrun. By Ed After much menacing language Lamar finally says.
Sebesta
Throughout my remarks I have carefully abstained from the use of menacing language; yet it may be useful to let Nicaragua understand distinctly – that the Transit route will be opened without her consent ..

Slave Owner
Lamar owned a plantation near Richmond, TX and he bought and sold slaves.
Whereas Mirabeau Lamar has his name splashed across the By Ed landscape on Sebesta streets, schools, universities and elsewhere, these slaves’ are given no names in the census.
Lamar died in 1859, and some of his slaves may have been sold after he died. However, the 1860s Census of the Richmond Plantation shows his widow, Henrietta Lamar, is still the owner of thirteen slaves. They are inventoried like livestock in the census with only age and sex given.

Summary • To Mirabeau Lamar non-whites, whether Native Americans, Latinos, Africans, existed only to be expelled, exterminated, or enslaved. He was a serial criminal in the commission of crimes against humanity. • The fact that there are schools, streets, a university, By Ed a Texas county named after him is a sign of a depraved Sebesta indifference to the humanity of Native Americans, African Americans and Latinos. • If Texas identity is no longer to be based on white nationalism and be a white nationalist concept, it will be necessary to recognize the white nationalist named landscape of Texas and to deracialize it, and ridding the landscape of the practice of honoring Lamar would be a good place to start.
