"From bondage to freedom the Black Cowboys remain a staple in our culture.

From jumping deer for property owners in South Carolina, to settling the West with the Buffalo Soldiers, to cattle drives from Texas to Colorado, from the Lone Ranger to Stage Coach Mary the Black Cowboys and Cowgirls are a staple in our culture and the practiced tradition are alive today in trail rides, rodeos and Buffalo soldier reenactments."
