Let me propose "Take a Person of Color to a Park Month." Walk them through the intricacies of "entering" the park. Show them how to pet the Park Ranger. Prove to them the park holds no racial animus.

This has been a narrative for awhile - if black people don’t want to attend national parks, it’s somehow Whitey’s fault. Embrace the guilt.

“Smokey” is obviously a racist slur for a bear of color. Plus he is voiced by a white guy!

Watch for calls that it’s discriminatory to provide federal funding to support something that almost exclusively benefits white people.

You heard it here first.

On Facebook, I saw an ABC report about this with lots of comments.
Suddenly, before my eyes, all the comments disappeared and there was no way to make a comment.

to support something that almost exclusively benefits white people.

Planing to bring that up the next slow news cycle.

They run a huge machine with many fat pipes direct into facebook.
Their dream is to produce a tsunami of BS that will destroy everything in its path.
A directional doomsday machine.

“Lack of transportation to national parks and the cost of visiting were cited as the top reasons people”

This is such bull. Road/camping trips are often one of the cheapest vacation options available unless you insist on glamping or RVing.

Africa a Black national park.

This has been brought up from time to time over the last 30 years. I’ve been to several national parks and a lot of state, regional, and county parks and have seen very few blacks in any of them. I’ve seen some in the city parks. When I was in the Army I noticed that the black guys were afraid of snakes, lizards, turtles, frogs, and most of the critters in the woods.

Also riding the bison in Yellowstone would be an enlightening experience as well as hottubbing in the natural thermal features. Petting those cute cuddly bear cubs . . . who could resist? An excellent idea.

Agree when the boys were younger it was camping or visiting relatives.

We did a 2 week trip from Memphis to Niagara Fall with only 1 motel night stay, saw most of our relatives and long time friends who had a bedroom for the night.

built on systemic racism.

to cause more white guilt, to get more of the unearned, undeserved, and something for nothing for parasites

First mention of this amusing story (Tuesday):

ABC News mocked over report warning national parks 'face existential crisis over race' .

Racist question of the day: do most black people really want to go see the national parks? Serious question.
