A woman in Philadelphia came up with a program to give kids from low-income communities a chance to play polo for free in exchange for taking care of the ponies.

sounds like someone has a smart tax lawyer who told her you can write off all your polo-related expenses as a charity if you let some poor kids ride the horses sometimes. Or am I getting too jaded?

Orrrrr we could just let horses live their gd lives and not be broken to the whims of humans and their frivolous egos?

Not really a good look if these are children of color. Just saying.

Somehow this feel horribly wrong instead of a feel good.

This seems nice, but the children aren't playing polo for free. They're earning their time through work. Their time and labor are worth $$$.

Wherereeeeeee am I to old?

Slave labor

I ♥️ this!!!!

AnandWrites Check this out.

That sounds great, but everybody who has friends in the horse-sports industry knows that this is just a pipeline to dead-end jobs as personal servants for rich white assholes.

NPR Choice pageNPR hates America and the 2nd Amendment. Sometimes art is the only answer to unanswerable questions. I’d rather Walmart and other chain stores discontinue the sales of firearms and ammunition, than see new strict gun laws eventually enacted. We really don’t need to see your AR-15’s slung around your shoulder while shopping either. Open carry has a place, just not at Walmart.
