Portland Photographer Showcases Black Cowboys in the Rodeo Capital of the World


Photographer Ivan McClellan grew up watching Western movies and
Bonanza reruns, and going to rodeos with his family in Kansas City. But as a kid, he never saw earnest depictions of cowboys that looked like him.
“I didn’t know a thing about Black cowboys,” says McClellan in a recent interview with the
Mercury. Any depictions of Black cowboys he did see were as “a punchline” Sinbad in
The Cherokee Kid, or Cowboy Curtis on
Pee Wee’s Playhouse. “What if a Black guy was a cowboy? It was like a joke.”
That changed six years ago when McClellan, who now lives in Portland, went to Okmulgee s Invitational Rodeo in Oklahoma, which is billed as the nation’s oldest African American rodeo. McClellan was invited by Portland filmmaker Charles Perry, who made a documentary about the rodeo. He was skeptical at first, but that changed when he arrived at the rodeo on a 105 degree day, and “saw Black people everywhere.” ....

"It's Undeniable These Are Cowboys. They're Real," Black Photographer Dives Into Black Rodeo

A new exhibit at the Buffalo Bill Center of the West focuses on Black cowboys and rodeos:
Eight Seconds: Black Cowboys In America. Wyoming Public Radio s Kamila Kudelska spoke with photographer Ivan McClellan about his work, and the first Black rodeo he went to in Oklahoma.
Ivan McClellan: I got out of my car and saw 2,000 Black cowboys there and I was just enamored of the culture immediately. The way the people dressed. The way that people wore braids, people had long acrylic nails, there was hip hop music playing. Like, it just completely shattered my conceptions of like what a rodeo was, and really expanded my idea of like what Black people can be. So I just got really fascinated with documenting that culture and kept going to rodeos over and over and over again for the next few years. ....
