Black Horsemen
The Butler Family from North Middletown, KY developed "Back in Black: A History of Black Horsemen in the Twentieth Century" website. [The website is no longer available.] The site included photos of many of the men who worked with horses.
There was also a 2007 exhibit at the American Saddlebred Museum in Lexington, KY: Out of the Shadows: Bringing to Light Black Horsemen in Saddlebred History. A DVD of the exhibit is available for purchase at the American Saddlebred Museum.
