Colorado Peak Politics: Colorado’s Sierra Club is under investigation by the national organization for tolerating racism and misogyny and may see the entire leadership of the 20,000-member chapter suspended.
A national meeting was held last week and input has been collected from Colorado members with the deadline for comments closing Saturday.
It turns out not all of those tasked with protecting Mother Nature are fond of women and leaders are overwhelmingly white, which is not acceptable for an organization that defines itself by protecting the environment as a social justice organization.
Former leaders say racist language was used and people were called half-breeds and hybrids, women were marginalized, genders were discriminated against, and those who spoke up here persecuted.
The sierra clubs been a joke for the last 30 years.
@ Dry Gulched, 50 years is more like it! My father worked for a timber Co. and had a bumper sticker on it that read, “Sierra club, kiss my axe”!
. . . his truck . . .
Dry gulched, even before that….
The left is not a monolithic entity. It is a large number of single-issue wack job groups who have a single point of overlap: they hate us and our freedom
Include Earth Justice and the Center for Biological Diversity in that ilk.
