Lee, trail name Boots, shares information about his annual Hike for Healing. This year the hike will be on June 19th on Segment 1 of the Mountains-to-Sea Trail. Listen in to learn how you can bring awareness to this issue and be an ally by supporting the hike. "Hike for Healing is an annual hike promoting ongoing awareness to strive towards healing of divisions. Why? Because humanity is imperfect. Racism, inequity, cultural insensitivities, social injustices, and even subtle prejudices are quite real and unfortunately play a role in everyday life. These are not political problems, these are human problems." - Bootsonthetrail.com Connect with Boots: bootsonthetrail.com All the social links and news can be found at https://linktr.ee/bootsonthetrail Instagram: @bootsonthetrail Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCx3N7038qJrQF9tVztx7xGw Support the show Connect with Hike: Instagram: @thehikepodcast @shenandoahexplorer Facebook: @thehikepodcast Email: hikepodcast@gmail.com…
