Oregon Groups Create Segregated Hikes For ‘People Of Colour’
The Oregonian reports that hiking groups in Portland are encouraging non-white people to band together in the outdoors so that they can ‘feel safer’.
The report notes that the heads of the groups Unlikely Hikers, OutGrown and People of Color Outdoors understand black people’s “sometimes wavering comfort level when wandering in the wilderness.”
It adds that the groups “want to make recreational public land feel more welcoming to people who are more afraid of encountering a person with a prejudice than a mountain lion.”
One of those involved notes “I’ve given all my efforts to attract people… who don’t think the outdoors belongs to them. It has been a real effort.”
The report even states “Hike leaders like Wilson say people of color know Oregon’s history as a sundown state, where nonwhite people who were not a part of the community were warned not to be seen in public after sunset, and they are aware that white supremacists and Ku Klux Klan members once marched in downtown parades.”
Believe it or not, this stuff isn’t confined to a group of weirdos in Oregon, it’s happening everywhere:
