Episode 22

UNCOVER: Dezmine Washington

Published on: 2nd April, 2021

When we asked Dezmine about her viral Tiktok videos she asked, "Which one?"

When we asked Dezmine to tell us about her herd of animals she said, "All of them?"

That paints a pretty good picture of how Dezmine popped into our lives and has been making us laugh ever since.

Growing up in a predominantly white area, Dezmine didn't see other Black equestrians until she drove a couple of hours away last summer to a Justice for George Floyd protest. She has always been one to carve a lane for herself and does so with her animals in tow.
