-‘African American competitor Jesse Stahl (1883-1938) began riding broncs in 1913. It is widely believed that due to his color and the effects of discrimination, Stahl was seldom awarded first place when sometimes clearly he should have been. Stahl won several steer wrestling and bull riding championships and is considered by some rodeo aficionados to be the greatest of all bronc riders.”
