Together We Dine - Black Cowboys: An American Story

Project Unity partners with the Dallas Holocaust and Human Rights Museum to provide a very special Together We Dine experience based on the exhibition "Black Cowboys: An American Story" running October 8 through April 2027.

The American cowboy occupies a large place in our popular imagination, continuing as a major focus in pop culture, music, and movies. Cowboys are symbols of our country’s rugged individualism, freedom, and self-reliance. However, common depictions mostly ignore the role Black cowboys played in shaping the history of Texas and the American West. Join us as we explore diverse perspectives on the role that race and the iconic Black Cowboys played in American history and cultural influences.

Following the exhibition tour, you will participate in courageous and safe conversation among total strangers. Led by a trained facilitator, you will share a light dinner while engaging in healthy and structured dialogue designed to foster trust, mutual understanding, and meaningful connection. By sharing beliefs and differences over a meal, the Together We Dine experience hopes to prove that what unites us is greater than what divides us.
