HOUSTON- “Party Time,” an old fashioned, down home, 19th of June celebration, with all the trimmings “went down” at the Silver Slipper Night Club, 3717 Crane Street, located in Northeast Houston. It was wall-to-wall and back-to-back. The citizens who were celebrating lived through and survived legal segregation and Jim Crow.
