Description:
Former Communities Organized for Public Service (C.O.P.S.) President Andy Sarabia discusses activism in San Antonio during the 70's.
The Bandera Expressway was a freeway that C.O.P.S. organized against in the 1970's. The organization was against the expansion because it was going to create a physical barrier between multiple C.O.P.S. communities on the West side of San Antonio.
Highway 151 was the solution that city council voted on.
