Have you ever gone to a national park, and noticed that minorities are not represented in the exact proportions to the general population? Well, the New York Times certainly has! (Can't you imagine a Times reporter getting out of his car in Yosemite, and the first thing he notices is not the breathless beauty around him but the race of the other people in the parking lot?)
The national parks attracted a record 292.8 million visitors in 2014, but a vast majority were white and aging. The most recent survey... found that 22 percent of visitors were minorities, though they make up some 37 percent of the population.
That's a gap of 15%! If there is a racial disparity in any education, job function or even hobby, racism must be involved, seems to imply the New York Times. (Not including, of course, racial disparity in the reporting staff, editorial staff, or owners of the New York Times.)
A neighbor, Carla DeRise, has been to Mount Rainier and other parks, and is game to go again. She just can’t get any of her friends to come along. They are worried about unfriendly white people, hungry critters and insects, and unforgiving landscapes, said Ms. DeRise, 51, an African-American. So she mainly hikes alone, albeit with some anxiety. “I don’t have a weapon,” she quipped. “Yet.”
You see? Black people don't go to national parks for fear of white people. The liberal's racism in this is double fold. First, for caricaturing blacks as being fearful of whites (most aren't). And secondly, by perpetuating racial resentment and hatred by writing about one paranoid black woman who feels she needs a weapon to be safe around white people…

When a group of blacks gets attacked by a grizzly, sure as sh*t, all images of bears will be pulled from the public view. So, watch out, California... that state flag of yours will be next! ;-)
“Last summer we took some friends to Acadia National Park. There was a huge presence of Asians.”
My son was at the Grand Canyon last month and observed the same thing.
The Chicoms are just scouting out which parks they’ll keep when we go belly up on their loans.......:-0
that is in my mind rationalization.
there are lots and lots of NPS monuments and historical sites within major cities. they are not the wild and wooly, tick ridden and mosquito infested out of doors requiring women to take an allergy pill before visiting location.
my previous post is applicable as well to sites not far removed from cities
I just went to Great Falls NP outside of DC this weekend. Plenty of non-whites, but the only Blacks were older.
Look at Camping, RVing, swimming or boating... mostly white people...I guess Liberals will start the Afro-American Outdoor Act of 2015, so the poor can by RVs, boats and tents with help from their OBT (Outdoor Benefit Transfer).

When we go to the NATIONAL PARKS, we want to hear nature... not RAP MUSIC where every other word is the n word, a word for a female part and a word for a hooker, where a jet engine would be quieter.
I’m not too much on national parks, but now chitlins’, Yum, Yum!
What is SSDD?
Only six kids, but we don’t go to national parks either. Too much money and work. Our state park system is a great fit for our family. As we seem to be the only family left who has tents instead of an RV we get privacy as well.
I only regret that I lack the youth, energy and discretionary income to do my part in keeping non-whites out of our national parks. I feel as if I am letting my great grandpappy down.
If that needs a sarcasm tag an Elephant needs a tag saying Large Animal.
Doesn’t fearing White make you a racist?
yeah
and also
Black Lies Matter
Fine. Stay away in your miserable neighborhood with your racist projections to keep you warm. I like visiting national parks.
Of course... Who is asking how many whites go to the African American Museums scattered about the country. Aside from school kids forced to go how many whites go?
Don’t give them ideas about Rushmore, they will try to do it and anyone who opposes will be called a racist like George “Curley” Wallace the well known Republican racist. Yeah, I know his middle name was Corley, not Curley and he was a Democrat but the racist liberals don’t care, they have no interest in reality unless if furthers their agenda, usually it doesn’t so they are content with lying. Michelle Obama accusing whites of racism is like Michael Moore calling Pee Wee Herman a fat pig.
