Hi and welcome. This podcast is first, for the Black community. To support those who have been in the outdoors but without the community presence to feel connected and supported, for you to see that as we are making our way in the outdoors, you are not alone. To show those who are not in the outdoors but are curious or seeking, that we are out here for you to join, if and when you want to. It is also for allies who want a better understanding to the narrative, "Black people don't adventure". This episode is just a preview of Black folks who have loved the outdoors exclaiming it. I hope to see you out there.

Please also subscribe to the YouTube channel where there will be videos of the interviews as well as B-roll from my own adventures. 

You can connect with me, Courtney Tomiko Lanctot ( pronounced LaNg-toe) via email at [email protected] , through Instagram @TheUnpopularBlack, or TheUnpopularBlack.com.
