She is making herself feel like she’s out of place. No one cares if you aren’t white, even when you start bitching about it.
I LOVE ADAMITE WHITE PEOPLE
You people are not "Journalists" you're idiots – You just said that National Parks are racist. The morons who you chose to interview are a bunch of whiners who are full of BS. It's not white people or the parks that are keeping people out of parks, it's their own stupidity, which is propped up by the lies that you help further.
In the words of Peter Griffin: "Oh, my God; who the hell cares?"
Some context ABC couldn’t be bothered to include here: https://youtu.be/Q7_HtaGFvh8
What a shamefully unprofessional so-called news story. Ridiculous.
Bring them comments…..
Hi, black guy here. Never once has the “whiteness†of others made me fearful of visiting a national park. This news segment is quite divisive. Please quit the BS.
if you dont see people you identify with, thats your fucking problem. maybe try identifying with people on a basis other than skin color… how about the fact that you both enjoy the outdoors and beautiful scenery.
Furthermore, oh my god 2:24… imagine looking to marketing and advertisements to make sure you have cultural permission to do what you want to do……. WOW america is FUCKED!
â¤â¤â¤â¤â¤â¤
Earth is racist guys, you’ve heard it here first.
All you do is post garbage and poop you crapheads. You are the racists!!!!!!! No matter the color, anyone can go to a National park if you save for it. So stop making white feels bad for their history! ABC your news station needs to be impeached!!!!!!
Unbelievable… This agenda of division has gone insane.
ABC, you are running out of race-baiting talking points, aren't you?
This one made me chuckle
I try to get my black friends to go to the National Parks, but they would rather stay home and smoak kr@ck.
Maybe its because… THERES MORE WHITE PEOPLE WHO LIVE AROUND THERE?!
Next: "The thumbtack and paperclip manufacturing industry is T O O W H I T E"
Reading through the comments reacting to this report, one gets the sense that the report was a big indictment of white people. But I did get that impression at all. Not once did I hear anything that indicated there was ANY blame WHATSOEVER of white people for the fact that racial minorities visit the national parks at a lower rate, overall, than white people. I think what got a lot of people riled up was the title, and I will wager that a lot of those commenting did not even watch the video at all.
Actually, I am more concerned about our lack of connection to nature OVERALL than with any racial disparity. So many people of all races stay cooped up in cities for months–even years–on end, and this is absolutely NO GOOD for their outlook on life. Being out in nature, in beautiful areas, not having to meet deadlines, not having to deal with all the BS and stress that daily life can bring, is important for all of our health and well-being. The farther from nature that we are, and the more time we are away from it, the more we lose our grip on what is really important in life.
Japan must be crazy racist. They have like no non-japanese citizens. I used to think it was because people don't want to move there. Now I know it's because of social and institutional racism keeping people out
What brings you hear is somehow racist?
What brings you here?
🙄 The same thing that brought you here
😑 You're here to show your kids where I almost fell off that cliff too? Wow, I didn't know you knew about that.
There must be some sort of systematic racism in basketball because poc make up the majority. Whites aren't choosing to not play, they feel like an outsider when on the court.
I walk daily in whatever park is available. I try to go to a National park yearly. More if I can. People make choices to where they want to vacation.
You know nbc, racists bring race into everything, even when it’s not needed. You trying to tell us something about you?
The Indian girl in the beginning is racist.
wow, wow, wow, as an Asian American I am so troubled by this ridiculous ABC fake news. National Park "systemic racism", who makes up bull craps like this? I can go to any national parks and never feel like I dont' belong there, so "systemic racism", period. What’s next? Boating is facing a crisis, 90% of boaters are white…?
What a terrible story. Nothing is stopping anyone from going there.
Racial hate is disgusting! Our media is evil and has no shame
Cannon Hinnant
Uninviting into the 1990's? Any excuse to blame someone else. It's nature. It doesn't care what your background is.
We need have everyone who works ABC, NBC, CNN etc. who promote this racist division on a list so we know who they are
I call BS! This is such BS I cannot believe the media can report something like this! Tell me where anyone ever asks what race you are when you enter a NP??? Does not happen. Have no idea how they come up with DATA like this.
So. What is your point. This is just a video of you people complaining and blaming others people for going outside
I refuse to believe this is real, theres no way
Wtf is wrong with you stupid fucks omg just stop trying to divide us you stupid fucks
When she feels unsafe in a peaceful park, but more comfortable in the ghetto of Chicago getting shot at
Freedom of speech yes, but being apart of the media and spreading racism, you should lose all funding
Ironic that this indian woman feels out of place. Sounds like that is her own identity crisis problem.
they cover this but not the Clinton trials. So stupid
Sorry for existing?
Cafeful your racism is showing
More race baiting from MSM, what a surprise. #fakenews
HOW IS THIS NOT RACIST? If I made this video on how the inner citys are too black and i dont feel welcome down there in Baltimore City It would be banned and i would be banned off youtube
Minorities do not make up 42% of the US Population where did that number come from?
What a racist douche!
This is like a SNL skit lol
