Ghuan Featherstone only remembers riding a horse with his parents at a nearby park when he was eight years old. But ever since,he's been chasing that sense of freedom and power he felt on the horse that day.“I felt like I could conquer(征服)anything,”Featherstone,now5L,said in a StoryCorps interview last month with Jordan Humphreys,a 13-year-old horseback rider.After serving in the army for eight years,Featherstone remained determined to realize his childhood dream of becoming a cowboy. When he returned to Los Angeles,he learned to ride at stables(养马场known as“The Hill"in Compton.Riders there would jump on their horseback and take their horses into the city streets.In 2012,a fire burned down The Hill.What had become a shelter for the youth was suddenly gone.Sensing the void()after the fire,Featherstone opened his own stable, Urban Saddles,in 2019 to create a space where he could teach kids like Humphreys to care for and ride horses. As a black man,Featherstone is against prejudice.People of colour are often prevented from pop culture and historical representations of the cowboy.His stable has helped keep the cowboy lifestyle alive in the streets."Riding through the streets on horseback has given me a way to connect with others in the community,"said Humphreys."It makes them happy seeing us on a horse and then they may be smiling,and I believe that when we come through, we give them a sense of hope,he added. If there's one lesson Featherstone hopes to convey to kids,it's a respect for all life. "We're respecting the animals and we're respecting each other,"he said. 语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了Featherstone开设了一个养马场教孩子们骑 马，并希望孩子们能学会尊重所有生命。 1.What made Featherstone want to become a cowboy?
