It's State Fair season in Texas, so you know what that means. Prepare for all the food you can get your hands on for a pretty penny!


More importantly, it's an opportunity to support Black-owned businesses that set up there every year.


Considering the fair's history of segregation and troubled race relations until its full integration in 1967, the amount of Black vendors today is a significant milestone. Here are 25 vendors you can find there this year, according to visitblackdallas.com:
