Made For You and Me
I just listened to the “Made for You and Me” episode. It was amazing! I am a brown person who loves the outdoors and I can relate so much to the experiences of the people described on the show.

Jim Crow laws, housing restrictions and the numerous other exclusionary practices that endured well into the 20th century are areas that deserve journalistic exploration. It is my sincere hope that topics like this will be better understood in the future. Airing quality shows like this that tie current topics with their historical context can only accelerate understanding. I, for one, was inspired by this episode. The Spanish language version of the song “Made for You and Me” just drove home the point that we must think of our public land as places for all people to enjoy.
