Reviews
“Kevin Jerome Everson discovers the world of real cowboys by means of a deceptively simple, but very closely observed series of long shots - not larger than life mythical figures, but normal African Americans who are completely dedicated to the rodeo. There is something really surprising about how the white American image of the cowboy here becomes the joyous recreation of young African Americans. A very moving portrait that gives one of the strongest romantic archetypes a new cultural identity. "
