Unearthing Houston History: Restoring and Celebrating Cultural Heritage with Yaneth Martell

Unearthing Houston History: Restoring and Celebrating Cultural Heritage with Yaneth Martell

In this episode I have the pleasure to introduce to you my dear friend Yaneth Martell, she is the Project Manager for C60 Inc. She is tasked with renovating The Council 60 Clubhouse, a National Historic Landmark   We talk about Houston culture, pivots, and our love for Jackie O. 

Yaneth tells us how she went deep into the history of the small historic clubhouse on Bagby Street, Houston.  Within its humble walls, the house held more than just the stories of the Hispanic community's struggle for identity; it concealed a hidden treasure that would ignite a fire within Yaneth. Little did she know, the house was filled with relics and documents that could unravel a whole new chapter of Houston's history.

We discuss how historical sites continue to deteriorate, local traditions are fading away, and the younger generation shows little interest in their cultural heritage. As moms, we think it's high time to explore new ways and approaches to reignite the passion for history in our kids and ensure its preservation for future generations.  Do you agree?
