“As the daughter of a Holocaust survivor, whose people were literally erased from the planet, the figurative erasure of Black people from the American equestrian story really felt a parallel.”
On this episode, we talk with Sarah Maslin Nir, author of the book Horse Crazy.
Horse Crazy is part memoir and part cultural exploration. It’s a love letter to an animal. It’s a story about the struggle to belong. And it’s a deep dive into the fascinating things that horses — and the humans connected to them — can teach us about ourselves and our society.
