Bucking Tradition, the short documentary winner of the 2019 International Vegan Film Festival, is available online now. Recently covered in Animal People Forum in an interview with Executive Producer, Eric Mills, the film uses footage of rodeos and interviews with experts to expose the so-called sport for what it is.
Watch the entire film below:

Thanks, Dylan!
I would encourage your readers to send the link to the rodeo documentary to their county and state legislators, urging them to introduce the much-needed local ordinances and state laws to address rodeo’s inherent cruelties.
As the Dalai Lama famously said, “Our prime purpose in life is to help others. And if you can’t help them, at least don’t hurt them.” Words to live by.

Thank you Dylan for publishing this.
I hope your readers will use this film to educate their politicians to enact rules preventing animal abuse at rodeos. Better yet, end rodeo forever as it cannot be made humane.
Stop animal cruelty
