Summary:
"Rue Mapp is the founder and CEO of
Outdoor
Afro, a national organization that runs workshops, excursions, and leadership training to connect Black people with the power of nature. She is based in the Bay Area, California. Told through first-person narratives, essays, and poems, this uplifting collection celebrates the many ways that
outdoor
spaces offer Black people opportunities for personal empowerment, connection, and rejuvenation. Readers will immerse themselves in stories told from mountains, redwood forests, city parks, and far-off beaches: joining a woman on her courageous journey up Kilimanjaro, meeting a couple teaching the art of beekeeping in urban Detroit, and following a long-distance swim alongside a pod of dolphins--plus so much more. Interspersed are essays by author and celebrated
outdoor
leader, Rue Mapp, honoring the rich history and traditions surrounding Black people's relationship to the outdoors."
