NNPA NEWSWIRE — “National parks are not just landscapes—they are living places where the stories of our ancestors come to life. As we visit these historic places, we are reminded of the enduring impact of Black Americans in shaping the nation. By sharing these stories, we hope to inspire a deeper connection between the public and our parks,” said Audrey Peterman, co-founder of the Transformational Tours campaign and a long-time advocate for diversity in the outdoors.
