Description | This is an oral history interview with Beatrice Green conducted as part of the Houston History Project. Beatrice Green was able to give a context to the Yates High School experience; Beatrice is a reflection of the strong Black Third Ward community that developed as a result of segregation and isolation. Her work as a Governess of the James Baker home shows the employment opportunities available at the time and her ability to deal with the role and to thrive in the position. Her involvement in the integration of the Texas Lutheran Church and her work as a Union Volunteer worker also portrays the role women played in the unfolding Civil Rights struggle. |
