Description

Black homeownership is not just a dream — it’s a political, economic, and cultural battleground. Join Houston’s most influential faith leaders, elected officials, banking executives, community activists, and real estate professionals for a power-packed breakfast where we confront the hard truths and historic policies that shaped the Black wealth gap — and chart a path forward, together.

Pancakes & Politics pays homage to the legacy of the rooms our ancestors once gathered in — boardrooms, basements, and fellowship halls — where strategy was shared over coffee and community was strengthened over conversation. This isn’t just another networking event — it’s a call to action.

We’re creating room at the table for everyone committed to reversing the patterns of displacement, land loss, and policy-driven barriers that have impacted Black Houstonians for generations. It’s time to move from praying about the problem to financing the solution.

Event Highlights:

• Deep dive into Houston’s Black homeownership and wealth gap data

• Discussion on the political role in land ownership, heirs’ property loss, and gentrification

• Faith and community-led solutions to preserve Black neighborhoods

• Connection points for banks, developers, and policymakers to partner on real solutions

Who Should Attend?

• Elected Officials & Policy Leaders

• Bank & Financial Institution Executives

• Housing Advocates & Community Organizers

• Black Developers, Realtors®, and Real Estate Investors

• Faith Leaders and Clergy from churches, mosques, and temples

• Foundations and Philanthropic Groups focused on equity

Why You Should Be in the Room:

Because protecting Black land is protecting Black futures.

Because our communities can’t afford another generation of loss.

Because power builds where people, politics, and policy meet — over breakfast.

🎟 Space is Limited. RSVP Required.
