So You Want to be a Cowboy

NEW DOCS

When thinking of the archetypal cowboy, one usually envisions the rugged, white outdoorsman. Wendy Greene challenges that image and introduces numerous African-American rodeo participants, from a 65-year-old rodeo producer to an ex-model and single mother, all passionate about their jobs and determined to change the American cowboy myth.
