Changing Attitudes about Adobe in Texas

This video describes how building with adobe in West Texas used to be the way common people could afford to have simple, effective housing that relates to their heritage.

Some people are being priced out of traditional neighborhoods. But some are also fighting back with workshops to empower people to build their own simple houses with adobe again.
