We are commemorating Indigenous Peoples’ Day for #ReadWithDTRHT, highlighting the groundbreaking “Comanche Marker Trees of Texas” by Steve Houser, Linda Pelon and Jimmy W. Arterberry. How are you commemorating #indigenouspeoplesday?
An arborist, an anthropologist, and a Comanche tribal officer created this book. A genuine marker tree is a rare find—only 6 of these cultural treasures have been officially documented in Texas and recognized by the Comanche Nation. All six are located in Dallas County.

The BBIA Music Symposium @Decolonizemusic is this week!
I will be presenting on Friday night at 7 PM in the Chapel Sessions screening a sneak peek of my next film with Pegasus Media Project “Behind the Strings: Amplifying Black Feminism in Guitar Culture”. 👀🍿
It is still #NationalHispanicHeritageMonth and today’s #ReadWithDTRHT’s book is Mexican Americans in a Dallas Barrio by Shirley Achor. It vividly describes barrio life in Dallas. Achor’s portrayal of the residents challenges stereotypes of traditional Mexican American culture.
Dallas TRHT had the honor of attending the John Thomas Memorial Portrait Dedication and Reparations Service at Broadway Baptist Church in Fort Worth, where they unveiled a portrait of Mr. Thomas painted by renowned artist Sedrick Huckaby. We appreciate the shoutout & partnership!
This was, in part, the culmination of Broadway Baptist Church’s racial equity project as participants in our 2023 Racial Equity NOW Fort Cohort. Congratulations Broadway Baptist & Dallas TRHT racial equity coach MiShon Landry for your work to make Fort Worth more equitable!
Mr. John Thomas, formerly a Pullman Porter, served as a Church Custodian from 1924 to 1959. This artwork is offered as a reparation for the racial discrimination he experienced in his career at Broadway. The portrait will have a permanent and prominent placement in the church.
Join Bishop Arts Theatre Center and Dallas TRHT for a Racial Healing Circle experience on October 7th from 6-8:30pm. Registration is required and space is limited. Register here: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F…
Our special #ReadWithDTRHT book this week is Trustbuilding: An Honest Conversation on Race, Reconciliation, and Responsibility by Rob Corcoran. It’s the story of how Richmond has become a seedbed for interracial dialogue & trustbuilding with national & international implications.
This weekend, Dallas TRHT fellowshipped with our TRHT family at Initiatives of Change USA in Richmond, VA for their International Peace Week Multi-Day Celebration, and met with @IofCUSA to learn more about the history of Hope in the Cities & the origins of TRHT. #HowWeHeal#RVA
