>>522529036kek, sure they did

>>522529036Yeah they've been pushing this one for awhile. >We wuz kings, we invented music, we programmed the space shuttles, we were the cowboys.
>>522529271>invented musiconly in America>programmed space shuttles true>cowboysalso true actually
>>522529036They're just making shit up at this point.Most documentaries over the last 80 years are historical fiction.
>>522529157>I think he meant cow thievesBasic cowhands, they herd and wrangle cattle like anyone else hired to live in the bunk houses.
>>522529319Whatever you say nigger
>>522529036Does that mean black people were responsible for taking Indian land?
>>522529036That's because cowboy referenced a black slave meant to tend to white men's cattle, whereas, in reference to white men, cowboy referred to "the cowboy gang" most know for their activity in tombstone Arizona. Qhat we know as cowboys today, is based on men like those among the cowboy gang who were involved in the shootout at the O.K. Corral with Wyatt Earp, his two brothers and Doc Holiday. Not black slave boys who fed cows.
