Reconnecting Roots: Season 1, Episode 5: Horse Power

This country was built on the shoulders of some of the hardest-working American immigrants--European bred draft horses. America’s working horses may have been out-paced by the greater horsepowers of today, but there are still a few careers with the job requirement of a strong back and 4 hooves.

Reconnecting Roots is a half-hour series hosted by Gabriel McCauley. Its purpose is to bridge (reconnect) the generational gap by portraying American Progress through music, culture, and history over the last 150 years while highlighting what values we may be losing as time goes on. Viewers outside of South Carolina, should check their local listings for air dates.
