Birding While Black

from Out There Hosted by Willow Belden

The events that have been unfolding across the United States over the past weeks have driven home once again that simply existing carries risks if you have dark skin. Many of us like to think that nature is an equalizer — a place to escape the injustices of society. But it's not so simple. On this bonus episode, producer Jackie Sojico bring you a story that first aired several years ago. It's about ornithologist and birder Drew Lanham and his quest to pursue his passion outdoors as a POC.
