It’s not too often you see a Black woman on a horse in Oakland, and that is what Brianna Noble was counting on when she took Dapper Dan to protests over the police killing of George Floyd. Frustrated with protest coverage, she wanted to draw media attention away from property destruction and back to the police killings of people of color. Noble, now an icon of Black and female empowerment, has brought her activism back to the ranch where her love of horses began.

Noble believes she can truly make her mark on a grassroots level with the kids.”I’d thought maybe in my community I’d inspire some change,” she says.
