Been Outside: Adventures of Black Women, Nonbinary, and Gender Nonconforming People in Nature

This vibrant anthology gathers personal stories, reflections, and essays from Black women, nonbinary, and gender nonconforming people who find joy, healing, and resistance in the outdoors. Whether hiking, birding, or simply being, each voice reclaims space in nature and challenges the narrative of who belongs outside.

~ Included for its powerful celebration of queer and Black presence in outdoor spaces, blending joy, identity, and environmental connection in an affirming and necessary way. ~
