This episode contains clips from a live interview with Dr. George E. Blair of New York City Riding Academy. There is quite a bit of background noise due to the barn being located on an island, but we grabbed some of the best clips and gems to share with you on this episode.
Dr. Blair not only runs a riding academy, but he is also the founder of the Black World Championship Rodeo held in New York City from the 70s to the 90s. He is featured in the book "Horse Crazy" by Sarah Maslin Nir as the defining character that led her to learn the history of the Black cowboy.
At over 90 years old, he is still working and running his academy and making history every day. In this episode, he shares how he made the rodeo happen and his advice for equestrians today.
