    Mapping Legacy: The Burrell Chapel Cemetery Report
    (Rice University, 2024) Falana, Mariam; Guo, Ke; Jun, Sarah; Mekala, Naisha; Center for Civic Leadership
    This Houston Action Research Team, supported by the Center for Civic Leadership, examines how the historically underrepresented Black community of Burrell Chapel, located in Brazoria County, has been negatively impacted by the Burrell Chapel Cemetery’s decline. The cemetery has fallen into disrepair and is difficult to access, which has strained the ability of Burrell Chapel community members to connect with the cemetery and commemorate their loved ones. This HART Team has also explored the significance and implications of Historic Texas Cemetery (HTC) designation, ultimately submitting an application packet for Burrell Chapel Cemetery to receive HTC designation.
