The Price Is White

Side 1: Track 8 7/24/22

Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion is the newest mutation in the war against nonwhite bodies, and it’s effective precisely because it seems like it’s addressing the “real issues.” By centering “diversity” (diversity from what? From a white majority), DEI gives capitalism the ultimate sheep's clothing: the outward appearance of communitarian, egalitarian virtues, with all of the voracious mechanisms of exploitation firmly intact.

What is The American Climbing Project?

 

The American Climbing Project addresses social, ethical, and practical topics in the rock climbing industry, in the hopes of building a healthier, more inclusive climbing culture.

The podcast is released in mixtapes focused on a specific theme, featuring skits, in-depth interviews, and deep dives into episodes from the past and future.
