The conservation community has joined the discussion of the insidious and pervasive effects of racism in our country. If you have not already read Chad Brown’s powerful article on racism and trout fishing, including his own experiences, please do so.
SWTU has plenty of work to do on this score. Our Officers and Board will be thinking hard and creatively about how to better welcome all people of all backgrounds to trout fishing, conservation and SWTU.
In short, we must do more to reach out to people of color of all ages. While SWTU’s leadership will be conscientious about this work, we’ll need help. If you have suggestions or observations, please contact any Officer or Board Member. Their contact information is always in the newsletter and on the website.
