Can anyone explain to me why we should give a flying fiddler’s **** what color our national park visitors are? I mean, seriously???
These kinds of questions are prone to p.c. libs for whom the whole world and not just America is a racist conspiracy against black people. They're racialists i.e. people who see race in everything. You're correct, this should not be an issue. If black americans don't want to visit nat parks, so what? But libs just can't help themselves. They look around at nat parks and see virtually no black americans and think to themselves "hmmm, what racist thing is keeping black people out?" Maybe black people don't go to nat parks because they just don't care about experiencing nat parks.
For that matter, many white people don't visit nat parks either. I couldn't get my very white pappy to go to any nat parks or state parks. He's lived in Texas for the last thirty years, and he and my mother rarely ventured twenty miles from their home. He and my now dead mother never visited one single national park in their nine decades worth of living in America. Even after he retired. One time I mentioned they might like to see Big Bend National Park, one of my wife's and my favorites, and the bored, disinterested looks they gave me said it all.
