For over 10 years, a man named Malik Divers has run a small Philadelphia stable in the city with a unique goal to improve the community via an unlikely means: Horses. At his stable, Divers trains teenagers to ride and care for horses, with the hopes of teaching them responsibility. They’re called the Concrete Cowboys, and what Divers has created is a unique and compelling form of therapy. In the video below, we meet Divers and an 18-year-old named Shahir Drayton who is in Divers’ Concrete Cowboys program.
