The Oakland Black Cowboy Association returns to our parade each year to help celebrate our Rodeo weekend. This Non-profit group's goal is to educate the public about the role African Americans played in building and settling the old west. The group shares the little known histories of the Black Cowboy, which, according to some historians, made up as much as 25% of Cowboys in the west after the Civil War. | |
