Erika Harrison first began @BlackGirlsWhoBrunch as a way to showcase Houston’s vibrant food scene. “I recognized that my voice/experiences as a Black woman were missing in so many aspects of the food and beverage industry—what we like, what atmosphere, or the vibes that are important to us,” she says.
Since then, her blog has transformed into a space for Black professional women to come together and share restaurants worldwide.
Let us raise a glass to Erika and her many efforts.
