High Horse: The Black Cowboy

High Horse: The Black Cowboy is a three-part documentary about the culture of Black cowboys & cowgirls and their erasure from the history of the western United States.

From executive producer Jordan Peele and Monkeypaw Productions, the pop culture and historical documentary confronts and reclaims the Wild West while revealing the story of the Black cowboy โ€” a history that has largely been untold. It rides into the forgotten corners of history, shattering myths and celebrating the Black cowboys, farmers, jockeys, musicians, and rodeo champions who built the West โ€” and now takes back their place in the saddle, sitting high atop the horse.

High Horse: The Black Cowboy starts streaming Nov 20th on Peacock.
