Now, did you know that the very first

assembly of photographs in sequential order

to create a motion picture

was a two-second clip of a Black man on a horse?

Yes, it was. Yes, it was. Look it up.

Now, I know you guys know Eadweard Muybridge,

the grandfather of motion pictures

who took the pictures that created that clip,

but does anybody know the name of the Black jockey

that rode the horse?

No.

Nope? I mean, the very first stuntman,

animal wrangler and movie star all rolled into one,

and there is literally no record of him.

That man was a Bahamian jockey

that went by the name of Alistair E. Haywood.

And he is my great-great-grandfather.

-Great. -There's another "great" grandfather.

That's why back at the Haywood Ranch,

as the only Black-owned horse trainers in Hollywood,

we like to say, "Since the moment pictures could move,

we had skin in the game."

while we're on set, shall we?

Number one, please refrain from making any loud noises,

sudden movements, and keep your cell phones off.
