Brotherhood of Skiing
Overview
In 1973, being a black skier was a lonely endeavor, one that came with racism and alienation. That year, the National Brotherhood of Skiers formed as a way to bring black skiers together to ski, celebrate and build community. With its annual summits and thriving youth organizations, the NBS has grown into a well-loved ski establishment. Along with torching the myth that black people donβt ski, the NBS continues to engender the next generation of black skiers. βItβs a beautiful sport,β one young participant says. βAnd I wish it was more accessible to everyone. I guess thatβs where our ski club comes in.β
