YouTube Description
as posted by the channelIt comes as no surprise that a time when white supremacist groups have gained increased public notoriety and the President has disparaged African nations as “shitholes," many black Americans are feeling isolated and unsafe in communities or workplaces.

Since the election of President Trump, at least 5 black-owned trip organizations have told VICE News that they’ve experienced upticks in interest from clients eager to get out of the United States.
VICE News followed a group of women to the Women of Color Healing Retreat in Puerto Viejo, Costa Rica; a travel experience that emphasized yoga, vegan food, political education seminars, and specifcally banned white people.
