This talk examines the outdoor diversity movement through the lenses of environmental justice and cultural studies. The outdoor diversity movement emerged in response to the discrimination, alienation, and exclusion that many Black, Indigenous, Asian American, Pacific Islander, and Latino people experience on public lands and in other outdoor recreation spaces.
