Leaders from Latino Outdoors explore community-focused outdoor programming and environmentalism in various regions, suggesting new insights into engagement.
It is a myth that BIPOC and Latinx communities are not active participants in outdoor recreation and environmentalism. Three Latino Outdoors leaders—who have organized in San Diego, Baltimore, and Wyoming—engage in a critical diálogo of what it means to organize outdoor programming for Latines that is accessible, intersectional, and community oriented while also being attuned to regional specificities. The diálogo, a conversational format grounded in storytelling, memory, and care, will examine themes such as outdoor leisure as resistance, transgenerational healing relationships to land and outdoor recreation, community building across differences, and understanding environmentalist practices in our everyday lives.
