Oh please that is just silly. Most of the state parks in my area have a good mix of races, and no one is treated differently. One of the problems is that many inner city families don't own cars, they generally use public transportation. They just don't have a way to get there. When we used to bring kids up from New York City (for a Christian camp), we had to go down and bus them up because none of the parents had cars.

America's national parks face existential crisis over race
As millions of Americans escape home quarantine to the great outdoors this summer, they'll venture into parks, campgrounds and forest lands that remain stubborn bastions of self-segregation.
"The outdoors and public lands suffer from the same systemic racism that the rest of our society does," said Joel Pannell, associate director of the Sierra Club, which is leading an effort to boost diversity in the wilderness and access to natural spaces.
New government data, shared first with ABC News, shows the country's premier outdoor spaces -- the 419 national parks -- remain overwhelmingly white. Just 23% of visitors to the parks were people of color, the National Park Service found in its most recent 10-year survey; 77% were white. Minorities make up 42% of the U.S. population.

When given a choice between the mountains and the beach almost all will pick the latter every single time.

In short, the fact that all humans are only one biological race has led modern biologists to conclude that race isn't a valid biological classification.

Acts 17
God made the world and all things therein, seeing that he is Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands; Neither is worshipped with men's hands, as though he needed any thing, seeing he giveth to all life, and breath, and all things; And hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth, and hath determined the times before appointed, and the bounds of their habitationAtheism is the cult of death, the death of hope. The universe is doomed, you are doomed, the only thing that remains is to await your execution...

IOW, genetic analysis has revealed that the vast majority of variation between humans correlates little, if at all, with any supposed racial boundaries[1].
