Description
The Texas Gulf Coast is home to a rich, black cowboying tradition. The counties that surround Harris —especially Waller, Fort Bend, Brazoria and those further south along the Coastal Bend — are still home to a thriving ranch community. African-American cowboys helped build that culture and economy, and it is this legacy that spurred the creation of the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo’s black trail ride associations.
