About Our Rodeo:
For more than 100 years, Black cowboys played an essential role in Fort Bend County ranching operations. At the George Ranch specifically, four generations of Black cowboys worked alongside four generations of the George family, leaving behind a rich legacy of Black cowboy heritage that is unique to this part of Texas. This February, the 4th annual Black Cowboy Legacy Rodeo will spotlight this amazing history.
