Weird thing to get upset about. There's some pretty successful hiking and biking clubs here that started as a way to get Latinos out and exercising. They've diversified to other groups and have weekly rides down town. It's pretty cool.

I'm guessing the TC took less of an issue with these groups existing and more of an issue with the way the LA times framed it, specifically their first sentence:
Longtime oppression and historical barriers have kept many people of color from feeling comfortable in the American outdoors.
