On this episode of Birding Punks, Paul and Tony discuss what we hope is imminent and longstanding social change spurred by the murder of George Floyd and change in the birding community via Black Birders Week inspired by the threat of police violence on Christian Cooper. The Birding Punks reflect on being self imposed outsiders and whether the bird community should reform existing or start new birding organizations to be truly inclusive.
