This is a fabulous article on one of my heroes: Tom Bass, whose biography made me weep for the joy, love, life, fate, and impossibility in it. Horse Connection gives a very good synopsis:

Whenever I need a leg up, I look to Tom Bass.
"Before Jackie Robinson ever donned a Dodger uniform - there was Tom Bass. Before Rosa Parks ever demanded a seat in the front of the bus - there was Tom Bass. Before Martin Luther King ever had a dream - there was Tom Bass. Before Barack Obama ever ran for President - there was the legend of Tom Bass – the black horse whisperer."
If you need some inspiration, you'll find it.
Kind Regards,

I own the book written about Tom Bass. I have come to love the American Saddlebred more through Tom's eyes and love of the breed. A wonderful story.
