Latino Outdoors

Close your eyes and think of an "environmentalist." What do you see? If its an old white guy (probably with a beard and a walking stick), you are not alone! Environmentalism has a diversity problem. It's not that people of color don't care about the environment—polls show that they do, and at levels that surpass white people—but the environmental movement has not made space for their inclusion.

EPIC's Briana Villalobos talks with Ruby Rodriguez and Jose Cabello of Latino Outdoors about their work to make outdoor spaces more accessible to Latinx populations.
