Antiracism Reading Circle: Let’s learn together!
The Ecotopia Bike Tour touches by it’s nature on many aspects of life where people with racial privilege will have a different experience than those without, for example crossing borders, hitchhiking to the bike tour, dumpster diving, camping in places where people may not expect us… We also find that during the bike tour, we often lack understanding of each other’s struggles.
