Mental health after another disaster (July 16, 2024)

On Tuesday’s show: We’re still recovering from Hurricane Beryl with a couple hundred thousand Houstonians still in the dark. How soon can Houston become 100 percent energized? And could there be some light for those facing economic hardships? Also, what actions are city council members taking in response to the storm? 

Also this hour: It’s been a rough week for many Houstonians: Beryl, extended power outages, death and violence in the news. We explore how to take better care of ourselves mentally after these latest shocks to the system.

Then, we discuss the history, challenges, and future of Houston’s Freedmen’s Town and efforts to preserve its legacy.

We visit Project Row Houses as part of our ongoing summer series heading to Houston-area museums and attractions.
