  The Yates museum is a window into a forgotten part of Houston's history. Inside, you'll learn about resilience of a burgeoning black community post slavery. This museum pays homage to and seeks to protect what gentrification and excessive development is destroying. However, through the work of the community and volunteers the history of Freedman's Town will hopefully live on to educate future generations.

  Tours by appointment have been informative. Assisting with Archaeology Field School Merit Badge Courses for Boy and Girl Scouts has been fun. Volunteering at the historic houses to become museums is great exercise and rewarding. Demonstrating to save the historic brick streets from removal and destruction has been rewarding. Raising funds for legal services, for historic preservation, and for student programs has been challenging. Send donations to: RBHYates Museum, Inc., PO Box 130726, Houston, Texas 77219-0726. Join others in this worthwhile effort.
