Ep. 139 - Compton Cowboys (Louis C. Hook)
About this episode
Author Louis C. Hook, also known as “the Educated Hood Rat,” joins us to discuss his new book, Black in the Saddle, which traces the legacy of black horsemanship from African cavalry empires to the rise of black cowboys in the American West and the riders carrying that tradition forward today. Louis and host Connie Morgan explore the history that was erased and the powerful resurgence of black equestrian culture in the modern era.
