Roots Radio is an interview series highlighting community members that make up the cultural, artistic, musical, and political Oakland landscape. In episode 14, host Richie Nuñez has a conversation with Oakland native Brianna Noble, Founder of Urban Cowgirl Ranch. Brianna's passion for farm life, community work, and working with horses began in her early teens and involved sacrifice and a willingness to take risks in order to achieve her dream and vision. When she participated in the Oakland protest of the murder of George Floyd, Brianna rode in on her horse and unbeknowingly, a picture of her went viral online creating a spotlight on her equestiran work and activism. Since then, her message and impact has been amplified and she has been able to raise awareness around her love for working with horses and motivating youth to pursue their passions in agriculture.
