Clip: Season 1 Episode 19 | 4m 53s

The Third Ward neighborhood in Houston, Texas was once a thriving hub of black culture.

The Third Ward neighborhood in Houston, Texas was once a thriving hub of African-American culture and business, full of mom-n-pop shops like “The Beauty Box” – a former beauty parlor that fell on hard times with the rest of the neighborhood. Now, two artists have reimagined the Beauty Box as a community meeting space with a nod to the past and a mission to help revitalize the area. From KUHT.
