When people picture the American cowboy, the image is usually fixed: white hat, white face, wide-open plains. History tells a different story.

AOC mocking Marco Rubio for saying the American cowboy traces back to Spain is showing how ignorant she is. This is not some hot take. It is basic history.

Americans and Mexicans later adopted and adapted these methods. | Jeffery Mead
