Executive Produced by Jordan Peele’s Monkeypaw Productions, High Horse: The Black Cowboy is a three-part, pop culture and historical documentary that confronts and reclaims the Wild West. This is the story of the Black cowboy whose history has been stolen, erased, and left untold. Featuring original interviews with Jordan Peele, Tina Knowles, Glynn Turman, Pam Grier, The Compton Cowboys, Rick Ross and Bun B, paired with archival footage, photographs, and an original score by Raphael Saadiq, this series sets the record straight on the American Frontier. We ride into the forgotten corners of history, shattering myths and celebrating the Black cowboys, farmers, jockeys, musicians, and rodeo champions who built the West—and now reclaim their place in the saddle sitting high on top of the horse.
