Voice #13 | Rhiane Fatinikun on Founding Black Girls Hike and Diversifying The Great Outdoors | 1000 Voices

May 3 2022 • 1 hr 1 min

Rhiane is on a mission to help black women connect with nature and with themselves through hiking. What started as a simple Instagram post took off, garnering thousands of followers across social media over the past 3 years. Black Girls Hike have been doing amazing work and have since expanded into other outdoor activities including gorge walking, caving, kayaking, abseiling and more.

In this interview we discuss how Black Girls Hike was founded, some of Rhiane’s early hiking experiences (some funny stories here!), building a community, the importance of reconnecting with nature, the lack of diversity in the outdoors, and her vision for Black Girls Hike.

If you're a black woman who's interested in going out and exploring the outdoors, somebody that is looking to learn more about building an engaged community, or just looking to hear a very inspirational story then this is definitely the interview for you.
