401 Franklin St, Houston, TX 77201
Post Houston, nestled within Downtown and intertwined with the legacy of Barbara Jordan, serves as the ideal canvas for empowering experiences that enable individuals to delve into their identities, challenge stereotypes, and reclaim their evolving heritage. As over 1 million West African descendants and 45% of the nation’s Nigerian American population reside within 250 miles of Downtown Houston, the city is a powerful hub that fosters re-understanding and embrace among marginalized communities of the African diaspora and amplifies the rich tapestry of connections and degrees of separation from their ancestry.
