1. Some lovely horses there, and beautiful Cow Girls, a delightful environment for the connoisseur of form.

   1. Yes. Wonderful. I have seen the Black Cowboys perform and now I want to see the Ladies do their thing! Looks like lots of fun. Great competition!

2. I used to ride horses and i admire this group, but i don’t understand why they feel they need to be an all-Black team. Are there teams called the all-white cowgirls?

   1. Because Black people have been left out of and negated from American History. Basically American History as taught is all about white people. There is little or no mention of our achievement. For you to even ask that question given how Blacks are treated in this country shows your blind spot or just plain ignorance. Yes as Black people we must and will continue to lift up ourselves as we are not accepted or wanted by the majority of whites in this country. Think about how foolish your question is. Why did the Tuskegee Airmen exist? Why was my Great, Great Grandfather in the 29th Colored Regiment? Because everything was segregated and no life for Blacks has improved very little. Racism permeates every segment of American society. I will not discuss this further as I am disgusted by your attitude.
