Black Pearl Books

Austin, TX

Black Pearl Books is an independent bookstore in Austin, run as a family business, with a mission to promote diversity, inclusion and representation through literature. The name was chosen with care. Black pearls stand for independence, strength, loyalty and healing. Some cultures read them as a symbol of hope, others as wisdom and knowledge, which suits a bookstore that exists to put the right book in the right hands. Readers have plenty of places to buy a book, and the store is grateful to be the one they choose.

Hoover's Cooking

Austin, TX

Hoover's Cooking has been serving Texas home cooking in Austin since 1998. Hoover Alexander found the business at the Night Hawk while he was at the University of Texas, rolling pie dough, making gumbo and covering for the head chef on his days off, and learned the trade from the ground up. The plates are the ones the name promises: smoked meats, chicken-fried steak, greens, cornbread and the sides that belong beside them. In 2011 Hoover opened the Soular Foods Garden trailer to close the gap between soulful cooking and food fresh from the garden, planting urban gardens and pushing more balanced eating with the same voice he uses in the dining room.

Black Austin Tours

Austin, TX

Black Austin Tours was created by Javier Wallace, a native Austinite whose family arrived in the area as enslaved African people when Texas was still part of Mexico. That history is not background for these tours. It is the through-line. Javier completed his PhD at the University of Texas at Austin, researching how race, class, gender and migration shape educational access, and he brings that lens to the streets, the buildings and the stories the standard city tour leaves out. Powerful stories, passionate guides, and an Austin most visitors never hear about.
