- The Jackson family’s 10-acre property in rural southern Maryland feels like a community in itself. This is where Corey and Robyn Jackson are raising their five children, four of whom are continuing a family lineage of black cowboys and cowgirls that spans five generations. Nicholas, 13, leads the way as the current youth bull riding champion of the world. This is a story about the history that bonds a black family together and the legacy carried by a young prodigy.

What a great father and an even better role model for his children ..
Thank You!
we wuz cowboyz!
Such beautiful loving parents and children.😊🤔❤👍🇬🇧
💪🏾🤴🏾
Yeah man, he's a good guy that guy .
Tbh...this is an example of historically accurate representation.
There were so many black cowboys during the Cowboy era, yet we almost never see any of that representation in media.
i love that you pointed this out
@DonaId J. Trump Vaqueros?
1 in 4 cowboys were black
@DonaId J. Trump Do you know what vaqueros are?
There were way more white cowboys
Strong faithful wife, loving and focused father = Awesome kids
"Cowboy" ain't a color, or a race, it's a lifestyle. We got Native cowboys in SouthDakota, there're Mexican Cowboys in Texas (& all thru the South) these kids are going to grow up with values and respect for people and life. Growing up on a ranch is the best thing that could've happened to me.
It originated in mexico . That's a fact
Cowboy was term that white men came up with to differentiate the Black cowhands from the white ones. Used in a derogatory way. So "Cowboy" is a term that was meant for Black men.

no one is competing.
I wish media would show more African American families like this rather than depicting them as thugs and gangsters or aggressive loud women with different fathers for their children, it took me personally getting to know an African American to know that what I saw on TV is not all true. Thumbs up to this family and to Vice 👏
No such thing as African American they are te original American Indians who identity was stripped

You know the mainstream media only likes to show the bottom 20% of black society ☹️
Exactly how do you think that dane Calloway is the only one do your research on real Americans ♨️
Much respect to both parents. Beautiful family values and beautiful family. God bless them always. Greetings and respect to all from Durango Mexico 🇲🇽
Im so proud of those kids brought me tear the part theirs grandfather wasn't there to see.
I wish i had a father more involved in my life mentally and emotionally.
I think not having this made me a stronger man and leader amongst others.
You may not have an earthly father involved like he should. But you can have a Heavenly Father that's always there for you.
This is the vice that I like. No angle, no politics, no propaganda.....just an interesting story about interesting people.....
These parents seem like such beautiful examples such an amazing story
I absolutely love watching this. I was blessed enough to meet this beautiful family and you can truly feel the love. This is such a wonderful feature and look into such rich history
I was not ready for the first 23 seconds 😂
Lol.
😂😂
Please keep telling these stories they are so important. Thank you for this.
My family in Louisiana and East Texas all ride. POC are so underrepresented in cowboy culture and imagery.
A life of purpose, heritage and faith. Theres really something to this lifestyle that we all could use.
It was so awesome to see the dad affirm that he was proud of them all
Good Job Vice , this is the kind of reporting i love to see.
THIS, is what needs to be promoted…instead of Thugs, Bad Bitches, and Glorification of violence and drugs!
Mississippi black rodeos is big the south I got my first horse at 11 and still have mines at 25 good learning experience of hard work
I remember my dad took me to our fam. ranch in Gonzales, TX when i was little. He was mad because I had on shorts and told me I could breakout riding a horse. Never got to ride and now I'm scared of horses 😆 SMH
Dang he's lucky to have a dad like that
great video love to see this content. Awesome family and one hell of a father that man is. One day I hope to bless my family as much as he has.
Family + structure = Success 💯💫
+ GOD
“U move and operate with confidence. With an aire you belong.” I love that!
I just watched this , I think this is amazing it speaks in so many volumes, more importantly it speaks love
This makes me smile!!
Wait til people find out the REAL Lone Ranger was a black man
This is wonderful to see and living in Maryland it makes me proud! I love the Bill Pickett Invitational and support it every year!!
These black kids are skilled and professional
Certified Gold!!!!!
Come out to the SW part of the US, we have decades of Latino cowboys. In the end, we’re all cowboys 🤠 🇺🇸
Fr all my family have hectares of land and their only source of income is livestock and avocado exportation to the US. Michoacán. My husband was a bully rider 😬 My mom got a young calf at 19 when she went away with my father. It was her herencia.
Keep It Up, Your Gonna Be Great 💯
Ahhh! This was so beautiful to watch. God Bless the Jackson family. Truly Black Excellence.
PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT: THERE ARE A TON OF BLACK.COWBOYS & COWGIRLS. WE BEEN HERE!
I love this. I wish I had someone close to me that ride horses. I would like to adopt 2 horses, but I don't know how to ride them or train them. I can't find anyone around Lancaster Virginia that will help me learn.
I'm a student from Denmark and the history of USA is one of the big topics this time. We're told that cowboys were mainly black people and mexicans. It's cool to see one of the original families.
God bless this family, I’m proud
God (:🙏:) bless those beautiful family 👪 peace and love
So proud of you and your family
Glad to see this happening - please look up John Ware of Alberta, he was a US slave who made his way to Canada, Alberta, and became a ranch owner and cowboy. He was revered in the area for his skill with horses, and his strength. Several places are named after him - like the school my daughter went to, and there is John Ware Ridge.
I have seen the comment that the term "cowboy" has racist origins, but that's not accurate. It was in use in the UK area long before people swarmed across North America - and it just referred to the boys who looked after the cows; like sheep-herders, shepherds, or a goose girl, and so on. Boy is not always racist, and it's demeaning to suggest that it is.
"Our term cowboy was first documented in the English language by 1725, by Jonathan Swift.
A direct translation of the Spanish word vaquero, one who manages cattle from horseback, cowboy has come to mean the same thing - a man employed to take care of grazing cattle on a ranch (OED). Vaquero, of course, is rooted in the word vaca, or cow, and stems from the Latin vacca. Another English word for cowboy, buckaroo, has a debatable etymology. It is generally attributed to an Anglicizing of vaquero, but, apparently, one scholar has suggested that it possibly stems from the Arabic bakara or bakhara, meaning heifer. Other terms include cowpoke, cowhand, and cowpuncher - all originating in the mid- to late-1800s. Regionally specific, cowboy is a term common throughout the west and particularly in the Great Plains and Rocky Mountains, Buckaroo is used primarily in the Great Basin and California, and cowpuncher mostly in Texas and surrounding states, " Wiki.
I bet the dad is also packing heat at all times. Would not want to break into that guy’s house. He seems like the kind of guy who will stop at nothing to protect his home and family.
This family is really beautiful, wow. What an amazing attitude
Good work Vice
One of the hidden jewels of America that are not told as much as it should, makes me a proud American even more
what a beautiful family
Absolutely LOVE this. Beautiful
This is just amazing to see what a wonderful family
LOVE THIS BEAUTIFUL, AMERICAN FAMILY SOOOOO MUCH!!!!
Those were, just like many of us the original people of America until the Italians started showing up
Compton cowboys
Bless YOU BEAUTIFUL FAMILY
Living the Dream.
Most cowboys were Black, Mexican , and Native American. Hence cow "boy", which was used to refer to men of color in the Jim Crow south.
Exactly. The only reason W people are calling themselves cowboys now are because some movie exec thought cowboy sounded cooler than cattlemen.
Luv it!
Every once in a while America flashes a little greatness.
Conservative family, in a conservative community is all I see. There are tons of them, all over the country. Try leaving those ratnests called cities once in a while and you'll find a slower paced and more loving America.
Losing succs but hell of a life lesson keep pushing kiddo
Loosing is the only way to learn the lessons that get you through your life
Great video! This is how it should be this is how America was build out hard work and labor! Too many sensitive people nowadays. 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇸
Good y'all shedding light on this people need to understand Maryland is beautiful with different types of all as all states have

@@stone0234 You know what, thats a really good idea. I will now call the UK the USE.
Enjoy them while you can because if one of them ever gets stopped by the wrong officer, then it's game over bud
@@bboykman If one of anyone is stopped by the wrong person then its game over bud. Don't be dumb.
Ive read somewhere people would be surprised how many black cowboys existed in the early west. The source i read said nearly half. I find this interesting. James P. Beckworth was a black frontiersman, one with an interesting history in California and Nevada.
Lots of people only know about cowboys through the westerns movies, movies produced during the 50's and 60's. Most of those movies not only show majority whites, but also very late times in the the westward expansion, many would be 1890's to 1910's. People came west for nearly 100 years and for a long time race and gender didn't matter.
@@Rgtmgtm what
I’m just a mexican stoner tryna make it out the hood by doing reaction videos on my TH-cam channel 😅😅
I can’t stop watching Seven Hunnid on TH-cam, he’s like a mexican dj ghost haha
I don't think people understand segregation was a thing, movies about white cowboys aren't for blacks? lol Segregation wasn't ended till 64 and it still took time for things to get better.
This just made my day. Let's not only look at the fact mom is teaching her children Latin 🤗 I grew up a country girl and it was the best years of my life as a kid.
And that right there is why we need fathers in our lives. What a great example of human potential.
and the government says we only need a single mother and child support 🤢
@@fourq2049 everyone knows we need a salt water crocodile to raise real men. Maybe a great white shark but let's not go crazy.
@@dixsonpushpa1349 what
Unfortunately I don’t have a good relationship with my dad. I was raised by my mom, aunt, and my Nana. My mom is a single mom. She takes care of me, my brothers, my nephews. She takes care of me with my chronic illnesses and physical disabilities along with working full time. My mom, aunt, and Nana are three of the strongest people! My Nana was a wonderful person! I miss her every day even though it’s been 21 years since she passed away.
@@fourq2049 Don't knock down single mothers, you ass
There are so many black cowboys in Texas, this is very common. I live in Houston and see them all the time in the country parts and on their trail rides.
Was just gonna ask if you trail ride. My family use to. Some will push through San Antonio sometimes. Love seeing them.
The whole americas
They still trail ride in Nhouston acres homes (44)
You keeping mexican culture alive and well
@1000TX research jb stetson the first american creator of the stetson cowboy hat that all cowboys wore in america, jb stetson said he got the idea to make a cowboy hat from the mexican vaqueros the sombrero created in the 1500s the first cowboys in america before white or black men even entered united states. The horse, cow, chicken, and all other cattle were brought by the spainards in the year 1492? I hope you know this but mexicans are spainards and the other half is native american indian? For a hundred years mexicans and native american indians roamed north america riding horses before white or black men ever entered america. Research vaqueros they are mexican cowboys from the 1500s white men came to america in 1609 and the first slaveship into america was in 1619 in jamestown. Texas all the way to california was owned by mexico. Blacks became cowboys after the civil war 1865 whites became cowboys after the american and mexican war which is when america won the war and came into texas were the mexicans taught white men to ride in 1830s. Then white men taught you blacks to ride to take the cattle from texas to oklahoma to sell cattle. Look at the date of those famous black cowboys ,it was after the civil war when they rode? There are no famous black cowboys who rode before 1865? Nat love, bass reeves?
A well produced documentary, with a great content.I am so proud of this family and guidance that the father gave to his children. Equally, This is a great historical and positive view of a black family trials and tribulation of life, and demonstrating to their children how to cope with success and failures. Kudos to the family, writers and the production company.
Ooowwwiii 🔥🔥🔥💯
This young man is going to do great things in his life!
As a father, I love nothing more than seeing another Dad in work. This family have aced it.
What a great father did you see how he didn’t just favour one child but he treated them all the same
God Bless him he did great I would like to see more
i want to see more george floyds lol
i want to see more george floyds lol
I enjoyed the video that I just checked out and it makes me proud to be on the video I just saw I really enjoyed it it makes me proud to be an American and Cowboys always have been the American way in life along with construction workers and so forth have a great day and a blessed one from Perry Johnson
Thank you for showing the many lives that black people have. 🙌🏾🤎🤎
- sincerely, girl from Georgia
Would you like to become an online friend of mine? Trust me I’m an interesting person.
Black folks live lives of nuance not stereotypes.
Interesting the farm is in Maryland. When most people think of rodeo, they think of Texas or another state in the Southwest. Pretty cool they have kept the tradition going strong
Maryland is very country don't let the location fool you
Seen these guys on horseback at the Home Depot. It was cool to see and caught me off guard a bit.
I live farther south and drive that way to head to work. I will definitely be looking for them now!!
This brought tears to my eyes... It's so amazing to see a representation of an underrepresented demographic that has always been there, but erased from history! Thank you for documenting this family and I hope that they inspire more POC to live out their dreams!
I know that people act on camera but the way this family talks to each other makes me so happy
Maryland is a wonderful state with all kinds of diversity.
Interesting point. This has nothing to do with the video but Marylands geography has always made me laugh. It’s so weirdly shaped that it looks like the state as a whole is just all the awkward scraps of land that other states around it didn’t want to claim. Anyways, black cowboy culture is hella interesting to me. All the old western movies only portrayed cowboys as white people but really it’s a lifestyle that goes beyond all racial and religious bullshit which is fucking awesome.
But also keep in mind that the word cowboy was a derogatory term that was given to African-American cowhands and was used as a word to the degrade men as boys, the proper term was cow hand
First positive story about black people I have seen this year... Thanks Vice News
This is absolutely fascinating to watch and experience
It's so good to see other black people with the similar views, work ethics and personality as my black self.
How many times have you heard someone say, "This ain't my first rodeo." - a real cowboy will tell it straight.
What a great way to grow up. These parents need no advice!
This is an amazing father and son story. Really warmed up my heart!
Just shows people dont know everything..Good for them be what you wanna be but never fake.
im getting second hand embarrassment, just stop lol
My understanding is that this was a common subsequent career for some black soldiers after the Civil war
An before the civil war
