Black Cowboys Compete At The Bill Pickett Invitational Rodeo In Memphis
MEMPHIS, TN - APRIL 01: Tommy O. Penson, a Buffalo Soldier reenactor, participates in the Bill Pickett Invitational Rodeo on April 1, 2017 in Memphis, Tennessee. The original buffalo soldiers were soldiers in all-black cavalry and infantry units formed after Congress passed legislation in 1866 to allow African Americans to enlist in the countrys regular peacetime military. The Bill Pickett Rodeo is the nation's only touring black rodeo competition. The rodeo celebrates western heritage and the contributions that black cowboys and cowgirls have made to the sport of rodeo. (Photo by Scott Olson/Getty Images)
