Ron Tarver is a Pulitzer prize-winning photographer who began collecting and photographing Black cowboys more than 30 years ago, Black Enterprise reports. It started out as an assignment for National Geographic and The Philadelphia Inquirer and grew into a collection highlighting generations of cowboys, cowgirls, rodeo queens, and ranchers across Oklahoma, East Texas, and Philadelphia. Now, Tarver’s work has been compiled in a new book entitled The Long Ride Home: Black Cowboys in America.
