Park is a 375,000 km park in Bahia state in northeast Brazil. It was home to the Maracas and Cariri people for thousands of years prior to the arrival of white settlers (bandeirantes). The park is known for its long indigenous history, beautiful table-top mesas, towering rock formations known as tepuy, underground lakes, waterfalls, climbing spots, hiking trails and more.

The average life span for an African slave living in Brazil was 23 years. Bahia is the oldest state in Brazil and its capital, Salvador, was a major hub for the African slave trade. Today, fifteen percent of Bahia’s residents identify as Black and a staggering 80% identify as either Black or mixed race. Bahia is well known for its rich Afro-Brazilian culture, writers, language, religion and cuisine. Chapada Diamantina National Park is located in Bahia, some 400 km inland from the state capital of Salvador.

She pitched it to REI, which owned Mountain Project from 2015-2020, and was rejected in late 2019. She subsequently pitched Mountain Project directly and was rejected again in early 2020. Next, Mountain Project debuted a new function for flagging offensive content that was curiously similar to what Melissa had proposed. They did not pay or credit her. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59e802b9be42d61a159cbf16/1611497477202-VGQP6P7Q5XQG1JDDEWXI/Project+Beta.jpeg Guest Blogpost - Melissa Utomo and Project Beta Are Trying To Save Climbing, From Itself - Project Beta Project Beta is a next-generation digital climbing app with a focus on universal design and accessibility. The 13 UI/UX designers, product managers and community stakeholders are mostly women of color. Project Beta’s goal is to move beyond the one-note depiction of climbers as white, cisgender, able-bodied men and create a diverse user experience that makes the community more accessible. https://www.melaninbasecamp.com/around-the-bonfire/2020/7/6/how-mountain-project-stole-from-a-woman-of-color monthly 0.5 2021-12-09 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59e802b9be42d61a159cbf16/1594133902924-VSYU1EK6P02ELL6M68UH/image-asset.jpeg Guest Blogpost - How Mountain Project Stole from a Woman of Color & Spent Years Defending Hate Speech in the Climbing Community https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59e802b9be42d61a159cbf16/1594215962586-OQ00GIB6U48TZWDGOXCC/Kris%2BHaro%2Bphoto%2Bof%2BMelissa%2BUtomo.jpg Guest Blogpost - How Mountain Project Stole from a Woman of Color & Spent Years Defending Hate Speech in the Climbing Community Photo courtesy of Kris Haro https://www.melaninbasecamp.com/around-the-bonfire/2020/1/19/gym-to-crag-getting-started-outside monthly 0.5 2021-03-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59e802b9be42d61a159cbf16/1579171714633-M901BZD7GS8WTZJT4MET/Damon+Yeh+climbing+writer+blurb.jpg Guest Blogpost - Gym to Crag, Getting Started Outside https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59e802b9be42d61a159cbf16/1579169750470-54YFK410KYH7A510CFI6/Damon+Yeh+article+photo+1.png Guest Blogpost - Gym to Crag, Getting Started Outside https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59e802b9be42d61a159cbf16/1579169868052-8J5QWONUH9EVOJQ9ON4X/Damon+Yeh+article+photo+2.png Guest Blogpost - Gym to Crag, Getting Started Outside https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59e802b9be42d61a159cbf16/1579170866699-8PANZGGS2D5K5XJJCIOS/Joshua%2BTree%2BRock%2BClimb%2B-%2BDamon%2BYeh%2Barticle%2Bphoto3.jpg Guest Blogpost - Gym to Crag, Getting Started Outside https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59e802b9be42d61a159cbf16/1579170764587-GH0XOUUL190BBO1QGUMV/excel+sheet3.png Guest Blogpost - Gym to Crag, Getting Started Outside https://www.melaninbasecamp.com/around-the-bonfire/2019/12/8/stop-making-movies-about-white-guys-doing-cool-shit-the-sequel monthly 0.5 2024-07-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59e802b9be42d61a159cbf16/1575771874451-PHZCNYOSWO7R50JEUZ4P/stock_30194573_Large+%28Tandemstock+photo+for+Anaheed+article%29+50+USD.jpg Guest Blogpost - Stop Making Movies About White Guys Doing Cool Shit: The Sequel Filipina climber, Iris Diligencia, on Wheezer 5.12a / Clear Creek, CO.
