People Are Obsessed With Race Julia Hartley Brewer BLASTS Racist Countryside Report
Wildlife charities have claimed the British countryside is a racist colonial white space. Wildlife and Countryside Link, a charity umbrella group whose members include the RSPCA, WWF and National Trust, made the claim in evidence provided to Parliament on racism and its influence on the natural world. MPs in an allparty parliamentary group (APPG) were informed that the British countryside has been influenced by racist colonial legacies which have created an environment some fear is dominated by white people. The countrys green spaces are governed by white British cultural values, the report argues, and the perception that the countryside is a white space prevents people from other ethnic backgrounds from enjoying the outdoors.
