"The ABC News piece warned that "America's national parks face (an) existential crisis over race," sounding the alarm that the nation's "premier outdoor spaces...remain overwhelmingly white.""

The buying power of the majority in this country need to show thier displeasure with these corporations, entertainment, sports, manufacturing and the media. Sitting at home trying to figure out how to help? Let them rely on the 13 percent they are pandering to for thier profits, WE NEED TO BOYCOTT. We can do our part in a big way
What does ABC propose? Should we round up ethnic minorities and bus them into national parks en masse?
Why is whether or not people choose to go to national parks a “crisis”?
Is nature now to be presumed to be racist?
You can’t even make up idiocy like this. They’re clearly working very hard at it over at Disney.
Very much so. I had a couple buddies from Detroit (twins) who were Black. I asked them a few times if they wanted to go camping or hiking or boating, etc and they always said no. I joked that they didn’t want to go anywhere that was outside of cell phone range. Really, you could not get these dudes to go out in nature no matter what.
Maybe ABC could flip 15% of their commercials time to running spots showing off the natural beauty of parks.
Of course, nobody would would be invoiced for the spots.
ABC crews would not be paid and they would be forced to find their own way to said parks.
The spots would not contains any messages or sound.
They could encourage all folks to visit the parks
Well, they WERE segregated at one time usually in picnic areas.
“Put them in the tour buses, cram them in the tour buses, stuff them in the tour buses...”
So, what’s the answer? Forcibly round up black folk and bus them to the parks?
And here I was thinking National Park visitation was voluntary.
It comes from an ignorant and politically motivated mindset that thinks every demographic group should be doing everything under the sun in near proportions equal to their proportion of the general population.
Why? Should every demographic group share an equal enthusiasm for fishing, hiking, boating, trekking???? Why?
The Marxist agenda will, whenever installed, manufacture, by forced choosing, proportionate demographic shares in EVERYTHING, so the statistics alone will claim a “victory” that they have “eliminated” discrimination. Of course the methods themselves will be methods of favoring someone and discriminating against someone else to achieve the desired statistical result.
Looting tents? C’mon!
Steal a cooler? No TVs, Jewelry, stereos
Not worth my time.
That is a fabulous camera view and very relaxing to watch. I think the white noise from the waterfall is quite calming, as well.
This is now a new bookmark and I’m sure I will visit it often. Thank you so much for sharing and that is one reason why I love this site so much.
An absurd conclusion, but that blacks don't camp and visit parks as much as whites has been long known. I've posted articles on it in the past, though from the perspective of involving black youth in those passtimes, for their own benefit. I'll link one article from a decade ago for anyone interested, don't have time to look for old threads.
National Parks Reach Out to Blacks Who Aren’t Visiting
That said, if personal choice to visit parks or not defines racism, I can think of a few sports, products, and passtimes that are, presumably, anti-white. I'd also note that over a third of visitors to national parks are foreign tourists. Guess they're racist too. Or does ABC consider non Americans inherantly racist.
So true.
The only time I worried about it was at a group camp where we were the only people at the entire state park. Not even rangers. Because the group was going to be offsite for 6-8 hours, I chose to stay behind just to keep an eye on stuff since there were a few people who rolled through
They try to shove this down everybody’s throat whether blacks want to get out in nature or not.
I follow Audubon on the Twit (just to see pretty bird pics) and they are over the top SJWs, a while back it was Black Birders Week, then they started retweeting for “Black Backpacking Week” And BLM/LGBT stuff.
They can F off.
ABC is obviously right on this one. If blacks don’t choose to go to national parks, clearly the parks should e closed - an existential threat to them. The US shouldn’t support anything blacks don’t like, /s
I think I will add that location to places I don’t want to go swimming.........
Yeah, but if a black person gets eaten by a Griz in Yellowstone it’s racist; must be a Klansbear!
By law, or self segregation; two vastly different things you know.
Segregation has been ILLEGAL in this country for many years but I still see it everywhere I go.
It’s pretty much by CHOICE and I just don’t give a sh!t.
the nation’s “premier outdoor spaces...remain overwhelmingly white.”
So a quota system to visit parks?
I unsubscribed from a mailing list for a local hiking club, and if I hadn’t recently sent my dues I would have dropped it (I won’t renew next spring). They sent out an email along these lines, and some of the parks/state lands in the system are specifically designed for people from NYC.
Tiresome virtue-signaling; I see many Whites and Asians hiking, but have never seen anyone maintaining trails but White volunteers.
