This rodeo is acclaimed to be the world's oldest and largest all-black rodeo. The town of Okmulgee is located south of Tulsa in eastern Oklahoma. I am just getting started publishing videos every Saturday from two nights of rodeo action. Those videos will also be embedded below after they are published on YouTube and/or the American Heartlands Channel on Rumble.
I documented both rodeos and will publish a new video each week on Saturday. I suspect that most of the videos posted below will be the uncensored versions published on Rumble.
Friday Events
Mutton Bustin'
Ranch Bronc Riding
Steer Wrestling
The Pony Express event appeared to be the most popular of all the events at the all-black rodeo. Our view was obstructed during the races, and I tried the best I could to document the racing action despite the excitement of the spectators. This was the first time I have been able to document an event like this one. Next on my bucket list is Native American Indian Relays.
Junior Breakaway Roping
Team Roping
Saturday Events
Pre-Parade Entertainment
Annual Parade
The video above and the one below both share the same thumbnail but with different logos in the lower left of the image. What's the difference?
The video below was uploaded to the Dusty Reins Stories channel on YouTube, but it received a copyright strike for a few seconds of music included in the documentary record of the event. Anytime that happens to a video, I will publish it on the American Heartlands channel on Rumble to preserve all aspects of the true historical record. A new censored version is created (not a true historical record) so that viewers on YouTube can access what remains of the event's true record.
Anytime you see a thumbnail with my CptiveImage.us company logo on it, you can be assured the video is a true historical record of a public event.
Pony Express Relay Racing
Lots more to come every Saturday!
