Featuring stunning full-color photographs by Gabriela Hasbun, THE
NEW BLACK WEST celebrates the modern Black cowboys of the Bill
Pickett Invitational Rodeo and the community that comes together to
witness their achievements year after year. A powerful symbol of
self-reliance, strength, and determination, the Black cowboy is a
figure commonly overlooked in the histories of the American West.
Held annually in cities across the United States, the Bill Pickett
Invitational Rodeo (BPIR) honors the historic accomplishments of
Black cowboys and fosters a vibrant community dedicated to
continuing that legacy. Bay Area photographer Gabriela Hasbun has
spent more than a decade photographing this beloved event in the
Oakland hills. Her images capture the joy and excitement of
performers and audience members, showcasing the daring feats,
spectacular outfits, and welcoming atmosphere that make the Bill
Pickett Invitational Rodeo an unmissable experience. In addition to
Hasbun's photographs, THE NEW BLACK WEST features quotes and
stories from the cowboys themselves, a foreword from the Oakland
rodeo's regional manager, Jeff Douvel, and a short essay from BPIR
owner Valeria Howard-Cunningham.
