Trailblazing Tex

Trailblazing Tex - Darryl Blackburn (Petroleum Engineer)

Listen Later

Darryl graciously joins the show. We had an incredible conversation! It’s a bit longer than the other episodes, but 100% worth the watch and/or listen. We cover a lot in this episode:

  • Where he’s originally from in Houston
  • How he ended up becoming a petroleum engineer
  • Him being a Little and part of Big Brothers Big Sisters as a kid. Now he’s a Big for BBBS. Listen in to hear why he believes this organization makes the greatest impact
  • George Floyd, and other lives lost at the hands of law enforcement
  • Privilege
  • Being intentional with who we support. If we want to support our communities, and specific businesses, like black businesses (artists, chefs, film makers, etc.), we must do it intentionally. Do a little research about the businesses around you!
  • Places to eat in Houston to support black owned restaurants
