Dale and Sunny: An East Oaklander and His Horse
b"Dale Johnson grew up in East Oakland with stories of his grandfather riding horses on a Texas ranch. For years horses were just part of a family story. But one day, a pair of polo boots caught Dale's eye and he was brought back into the world of equestrians.\\nNow Dale and his horse, Sunny, are deep in the horseback community. Last fall, they joined other riders, like Brianna Noble, to ride through San Francisco's Sunnydale Projects on Halloween dressed up like Wakandans . They were also part of the Ride Out to Vote campaign last November.\\nThis week on Rightnowish, Dale and I talk about what it means to be\\xa0a polo player and an equestrian in the face of race and class stereotypes that come with being an African American man from East Oakland."
