“PearlZ in the Wild” mobilizes Zeta women and Zeta affiliates to engage in healthy outdoor activities at USFWS National Refuges under the “Zetas Have Heart- Zeta Days at The Refuge” Program. National park visitorship is severely skewed, and Black folks are most underrepresented. This reflects Jim Crow policies and violence often inflicted on Black people in outdoor spaces, rather than a lack of cultural engagement with the natural world. Zeta aims to reclaim these spaces and illuminate the scientific, naturalist, and healthy opportunities provided through national wildlife refuges. Join us!
