“BUSINESS SPOTLIGHT.” BEYGOOD FOUNDATION...
Kamala Harris to use her song “FREEDOM” for her 2024 presidential campaign is much better than an endorsement Why? Over the years, Beyoncé has maintained strict clearance guidelines regarding using her music, so granting Vice President Harris the right to use “FREEDOM” throughout her 2024 Presidential campaign is a big deal
The $25,000 grant recently awarded to the Black Cowboy Museum is part of an ongoing partnership with the Bill Pickett Invitational Rodeo Foundation to provide

KNOW YOUR HISTORY...
WWhen it comes down to it, most Americans’ vision is the image of the Lone Ranger and his sidekick, Tonto, riding off into the sunset when they hear the term Cowboy While that image comes to mind, the Lone Ranger and Tonto are merely symbols that have been etched and branded into our consciousness by Hollywood ‘story-tellers’ who identify with their culture the culture of white and Native Americans
But there’s a gem tucked away in Rosenberg, Texas, with a different story – one of men of a different hue riding off into the sunset Founded by Larry Callies, The Black Cowboy Museum is preserving the legacy of America’s Black Cowboy – an untold story that Hollywood has ignored and ‘story-tellers’ haven’t fully embraced or appreciated
At the Black Cowboy Museum located at 1104 3rd St, Rosenberg, Texas 77471, Larry Callies allows his museum patrons to step into the boots of Bass Reeves, Nat Love, and Bill Pickett
“Reeves, Love, and Picket are the cowboys who shaped our history,” says Callies “And in my opinion, these men also shape our future, a future that’s still unfolding ”
Who invented the telephone?
Depending on who you ask, the names you hear may differ Ask your history school teacher and the name you will more often than not be that of Alexander Graham Bell – the man widely credited with developing the world’s first working telephone
Gram Bell’s patent, received on March 7, 1876, is the first on record Still, according to Callies, it was Lewis Howard Latimer, a Black man who possessed a keen understanding of the technology that led to the invention of the telephone as we know it today
Not to take anything away from Alexander Graham Bell, at the Black Cowboy Museum, Larry Callies likes to tell the untold stories of the contribution “OUR PEOPLE” made that have gone ignored, omitted, and, in some ways, distorted in history books
“African Americans are proud, but our true heritage isn’ t known,” says Callies “I’m telling our story at my museum – our history lives on through the museum I founded ”
Larry Callies is a proud cowboy –but he credits himself with being a man of God first “Here Comes Larry Callies,
THE MUSEUM: The BeyGOOD Foundation recently donated $25,000 00 to the Black Cowboy Museum, founded by Larry Callies, located at 1104 3rd Street, Rosenberg, Texas 77471 The museum is open from 10:00 a m to 5:00 p m Tuesday through Saturday and is closed on Sundays and Mondays General Admission is very reasonable Call Larry Callies at (281) 787-3308 to schedule a tour
“STEPPING OUT IN FAITH,” is the title of his book
“Larry Callies proudly shares the hidden history of the “BLACK COWBOY” with visitors of his visitors from around the county and the world” is emblazoned on the back cover
When I first visited his Black Cowboy Museum, he said, “I am a Christian first and a Cowboy second ”
You don’t have to press Callies on where his strength comes from because his faith in God shines through his eyes He credits God Almighty with being his sustainer
His Black Cowboy Museum is (a 501 C3 Non-profit Organization) to which he’s dedicated his life “My museum focuses on preserving historical documents, memorabilia, artifacts, and pictures highlighting the rich history and amazing stories of the Black Cowboy of the Old West,” he says
“Highlighting the contributions of the true Cowboys is extremely important to me,” says Callies “The Black Cowboy Museum I’ve founded exhibits the contributions, history, and cultures of all cowboys of the ‘OLD WEST,’ especially the amazing Cowboys of the great state of Texas,” he proudly proclaims
Affectionally known as “COWBOY LARRY” by locals, Larry Callies is quickly gaining notoriety and popularity around the globe by the grace of God
Born in November 1952 in El Campo, Texas, Callies graduated from Boling High School and attended Wharton Junior College before pursuing a County Western Singing Career
As the legend goes, Larry Callies and The Bronco Band performed in many venues before he lost his voice At one point in his career, the same manager managed Callies and George Strait, a famous country music singer, songwriter, actor, and producer
If you aren’t familiar with country music stars, Strait sold more than 120 million records worldwide, making him one of the best-selling artists ever
As for Larry Callies, “Some of his many singing engagements were before government officials including President George W Bush, Governor Ann Richards, and many other local and state officials, as well as a litany of Houston Mayors,” his book states
During his competitive career, Callies was an accomplished rodeo calf and team roping Cowboy in his own right He won a heap of trophies, championship belt buckles, and piles of cash
Businessman Eric Carr is a man on the move...
AUBREY R TAYLOR REPORTS©
WWhen some folks think of boring and drilling, the first company that comes to mind is “THE BORING COMPANY,” founded by Elon Musk The Boring Company (TBC) is an American infrastructure, tunnel construction, and equipment company founded by Elon Musk, a man worth $262 billion the last time I checked
The man I think of when it comes to boring and drilling is “OUR SPONSOR,” by the name of Eric Carr, the President and
CEO of E&E Construction
Recently, while sitting in Mr Carr ’s office on the north side of Houston, I saw many accolades on his wall But when asked if I could share them with my readers, the answer was an emphatic NO
When asked why, he explained how he doesn’t like to show out or brag about receiving awards or recognition, which he’s received plenty of Nevertheless, I would like to publicly thank Mr Eric Carr for finding value in supporting our mission to empower and inspire

FROM THE DESK OF RAY/RC JONES...
COMMITTED: As a testament to his commitment and dedication to the citizens of Harris County, Texas, Ray “RC” Charles Jones developed a personal mission statement that declares, “Ambition, Inspiration, and Determination are my daily driving forces To serve and give despite the circumstances Compassion and empathy partnered with fairness and moral standing Community, Civic, and City active I serve
THE NORTH SIDE MUST COME TOGETHER...
As many of you know, I am the President of the Northside Political Action Group, serving both the East and West regions I aim to inform the northeast community about matters essential to our voters With over 48 years of experience in politics, I understand the political landscape and how it operates, especially regarding elected officials
One critical thing I advocate for is examining an elected official’s record Their actions will tell you what they have done and, more importantly, what they should do for their constituents Shortly, I will share information about important
topics that we, as a community, must unite around
I will also keep you updated on concerns specific to North Forest One glaring issue is that none of the elected officials have offices in the Northeast Many of our top public officials stop in the 5th Ward, mistakenly considering it the boundary of the north side of Houston – which isn’t true
We must work together to ensure our community’s voice resonates throughout Harris County Another critical topic is the future of our community’s college, HCC, at the North For-
www.aubreyr
est campus at 6010 Little York Road, Houston, Texas 77016
We must unite on issues like this to ensure the respect of our com-
munity The days are long gone when we will allow politicians to give us detention ponds, like what happened in February 2023
Regarding the North Forest campus, HCC clarified that they were not interested in developing an on-site detention pond or selling land for that project They intend to continue with their existing grandfather agreement All I’ve discussed above are
critical issues, and I encourage you to stay informed and engaged
Lastly, pay attention to your property tax statements If you are unsure how to understand them, I recommend reading Bill King’s article
Let us unite as a community and work toward a better future in Northeast Houston By engaging the northeast ministers, all leaders are welcome, no matter the size of your congregation I also encourage you to join and help educate the younger voters
Please come on the same accord, as we are all leaders in our own right
