My big-hearted and white-skinned cycling friend Dennis Dodson is an artist, has a Master’s Degree in Sociology from the New School for Social Research with a focus on culture and ethnography. His journey has been interesting, as he grew up in a racist working-class neighborhood of North Baltimore.
Dennis claims he has been obsessed with cycling since 1975 but he has only started long tours in the past nine years, mainly in the form of off-road bikepacking. This will be his longest ride to date.
At around 7 AM, Mountain Time, Monday, July 6, 2020, Dennis begins his 2000-mile bike adventure from his home in Santa Fe, New Mexico to our nation’s capital, Washington D.C. He will be flying a virtual flag as he rides.
Showing solidarity, and spinning his wheels, Dennis will be meeting with other people of conscience at a proposed “Black Lives Matter, March on Washington”, August 28, 2020. Dennis will also be raising funds and flying his flag for New Mexico Native American organizations to help with pandemic relief and social justice causes.
Please support Dennis’ brave and bold effort through GoFundMe here https://gf.me/u/x9zrhz and please listen to this deeply-emotional podcast episode as Dennis and I lay a bunch of $hit out on the table.
