I don’t want it to die – The black teen pioneer preserving cavalry sport

In the world of equestrian sports, there has been a lack of diversity and representation, especially among black riders. However, one teenage pioneer is breaking barriers and preserving the tradition of cavalry sport.

Meet Jamal, a 16-year-old boy from a small town in Louisiana, who fell in love with horses at a young age. Despite facing stereotypes and discrimination, Jamal refused to give up on his passion for riding and competing in cavalry tournaments.

With determination and hard work, Jamal has not only excelled in the sport but has also become an inspiration for other black riders who dream of pursuing a career in equestrian sports. He has made it his mission to promote diversity and inclusion in the traditionally white-dominated world of cavalry.

Through his social media presence and community outreach efforts, Jamal is raising awareness about the importance of representation in equestrian sports and advocating for equal opportunities for all riders, regardless of their race or background.

Despite facing challenges and setbacks along the way, Jamal remains committed to his goal of preserving the legacy of cavalry sport and ensuring that future generations of black riders have a place in the sport.

His dedication and passion for the sport have not gone unnoticed, as Jamal has received recognition and support from the equestrian community and beyond.

As Jamal continues to pave the way for diversity in cavalry sport, he hopes to inspire other black teens to follow their dreams and pursue their passions, no matter the obstacles they may face.

With Jamal leading the charge, the future of cavalry sport looks bright and promising, with a new generation of riders breaking barriers and shattering stereotypes.

I don’t want it to die – the passion, the tradition, the heritage. Thanks to Jamal and other trailblazers like him, cavalry sport will continue to thrive and evolve, welcoming riders of all backgrounds and ensuring that everyone has a place in the saddle.
