How a black cowboy built a better life beyond the ghetto : The Antonio James Interview

Citizen J

Jillian talks with Antonio James, a modern-day, genuine cowboy who began his journey in the ghettos of East Detroit, and through a series of unexpected and providential pivots, later settled into his life as the owner of a working horse ranch in the Rio Grande Valley of South Texas. Jillian and Antonio discuss Hollywood cowboy stereotypes, the definition of a cowboy, how Lil Nas X is not a cowboy, and the importance of positive role models.
