The Cowgirls of Color Are Changing The Face of Rodeo!

The Cowgirls of Color aren't just changing the stereotypical look of rodeo - they're inspiring young girls everywhere to keep bucking.

Rodeo has been a sport primarily dominated by white men. Even though there were always black cowboys, the sport has a murky history with how it has treated them. The Cowgirls of Color are trying to rewrite that history and change what people think of when they say "rodeo."

Being a cowgirl bring a type of freedom that few black women have respect from there male counterparts because if she did that you can’t help but respect her..

I'm black and even my family judges me about even being country😔

[@HavenBurrell]

Just be your self they will get over it, When I got into middle school I found out about a thing called emo, and metal my family wants happy about that, but they go over it. Now when ever I play my mental music or country(I know I have a weird taste in music XD)they just yell at me to put my headphones in or turn it down, and they go back to what their doing. Just cause your black doesn't mean you can't rock out, be country, win a Nobel prize, or do brain surgery. Just do what ever makes you happy hun 😀😄

Animal exploitation for human "entertainment" is NOT Upworthy.

[@RobertGrillo]

Those who oppress people of color also claim other species as their victims. To ignore this connection is a fatal error. The message of this video is that it is wrong to discriminate against people of color but just fine to discriminate based on species membership? It's okay to exploit animals in sports that celebrate cruelty to innocent, defenseless victims to fuel the ego of those who get pleasure out of dominating them?

[@darceejean]

Perhaps you should pull some facts and stats before pulling the race card ... starting with rodeo locations and population demographics

[@beastthomas5117]

Darcee Jean if u look up black rodeo you see all the black heritage of rodeo

[@lauramarr6241]

Diversity is good but I still do not like rodeos. (they are not very humane to the animals especially cows)
