Oral History Interview with Toni Prados on July 18, 2016.

Mrs. Prados is the first Black female car salesperson, a long-time NAACP member, and was raised in segregated Beaumont.

She also discussed dealing with a racially "transitioning" business as well as difficulties she continues to experience with the city when attempting to pass inspection and reopen her beauty salon.
