Thank you for this video! I'm a 60y/o black woman from north MS. My great grandfather told me about the term black cowboy before whites glamourized it. They had to herd cows for their owners and were degraded by being called "boy". That's how the term was born. In his father's time and area in the mid 1800's white men were called cowhands not cowboys. Being a cowboy was a hard, nasty, and degrading job where only blacks and some poor white did, though poor whites became cow hands.

Growing up as a young black child use to watch alot of cowboy movies but now as a grown man I never knew there were black cowboys as well but Hollywood as always hidden this truth
Israelite men (black men) where also excellent herdsmen in the biblical days. It makes sense those skills would be seen during that time in American history as well!
The truth is that is was Hollywood that changed the colour of the cowboy, in those days only blacks, Mexicans and native Indians were called cowboys as they were already in some instances referred to as boys. Whites doing that same job were known as cowhands, this historical inaccuracy can also be seen in the depiction of pirates or privateers with inaccuracies in their language, appearance and often demeanor.
I love this channel so much!! My 9-year-old daughter and I watch these videos every single day! The first time I saw an African-American cowboy what is in wild wild West with Will Smith he was my first crush growing up. I tell you, him and a cowboy outfit definitely make me a happy girl. Still does 🩷💟
*hears about sabotage * See? "These folks" either can't compete or don't want 2 compete so they gotta sabotage! And in dat case, he still won! How pathetic does one gotta b 2 sabotage or try AND STILL LOSE?
This world would be such a better place if we shared knowledge, understanding, and respected everything that everyone contributed. It is so unnecessary to try to hide history, the truth always comes to the surface
Thank you for giving of your time and resources to gather all of this wonderful information, and share this with everyone. This really shows that everyone has their God given skills. It is so sad they were not recognized when they were here. They truly had a for the land and cattle, horses, people as well.😊
Thank you for this video!! I am 64yrs. old and did not know any of this!! This gives me another reason to be proud of being a part of culture so beautiful, knowledgeable, fierce, proud, productive, creative, loving, one of a kind!!

I've jeard of a 100 or so black cowboys. They were prevelent on cattle drives and several were sheriff's, Marshalls, trackers, and bounty hunters. Their histories are well documented just waiting for anyone willing to pick the books up.

@@azborderlands We have never been envious of Mexicans 😂Your ancestors were hung from a tree like my ancestors in the south and you still team up with them against us
I saw some Black Cowboys & Cowgirls riding through LA one evening & they were HELLA DEEP. Come to find out there's an ALL BLACK rodeo that travels the country. & One of the homies is in a movie about the Black Cowboys in LA.
Mexicans were the first cowboys in america when there was no white or black in america. Mexican cowboys ruled since 1500s in the southwest states of america when mexico owned it. Mexicans showed white men how to ride. And white men showed black men how to ride.
@bigcoop3717 tariq nasheed spread lies and now it is impossible to stop that lie because it is you blacks believe any and everything that tariq nasheed spreads.
Yes that name came from the whites who would normally called the color kids even grown men they would refer to. So they used to ride horses 🐎 and due to the boy calling they got the name cowboy they were the first to ride horses
Nothing that we do in this captivity, is intriguing to me, no form of entertainment, or proving of manhood Other than, how did we get into this State. That’s what’s important nothing else, I don’t care how well we ride a horse I don’t care how good we dribble a Ball, or for that matter, how will we catch one?. We are still in captivity. We aren’t here To prove anything, you are in punishment, largely because our heads are very hard, and we can’t accept it. Roping a cow and riding a bull is nothing more than gladiator sports. we shouldn’t want to be in any Hall of Fame other than finding out how we got to this point. Hey let’s find the hall of fame of, how we,as a people pissed, GOD OFF, WHAT ABOUT THAT, I like this content because it should show that something is wrong, why do we do everything so much better, I have the answer, We love our sin so much that we won’t acknowledge,GOD Michael Jordan, Michael Jackson everyone that we love so much has achieved so much, Whitney Houston Oprah Winfrey, The list goes on and on. But we are inferior, God is not gonna let us escape this punishment, until you stop trying to live along side them…………. You’ll always be on the bottom.
Possibly some, the majority no . That kind of behaviour was predominantly a Caucasian thing. Historically and statistically, chomos, and beastiality .. do you research my friend. The truth is out there..
At first Caucasians were calling themselves cowhands, but as an insult to our men, they would call them cowboys?.... And because the term cowhands didn't make white men look cool, they decided to steal the very same name as an insult to our men and call them cowboys. 😂😂... I know that our people have a lot of problems you know but at the end of the day, at the end of the day people. I want to be with my own people., in true peace love Harmony no jealousy no envy no strife no mixed, change phenotype of our people. I just want what YAHUAH-YAHUSHA HAD/HAS HAVE FOR US ... AND THIS IS NOT ALL INCLUSIVE. I'M ONLY TALKING ABOUT OUR PEOPLE THE 12 TRIBES OF TRUE ISRAELITES.
Cowboys came in all races & color. Not just White & Black, but Biracial, Clay Mexican, Red Indian, Yellow, Asian, Blue the Blue Applacian Mountain people, just to name a few other races & colors. Maybe if people actually educated themselves & stop claiming ignorance all the time, then this all wouldn't be new information for people.

Only one in 4 cowboys were black.
The Spanish Vaqueros were the first cowboys.
