I was lucky enough to snag a seat on a Hood Huggers bus tour lead by the company founder, Dwayne. Our tour kicked off with an uplifting musical performance by a local singer/songwriter. Afterwards, Dwayne drove the group to key landmarks in Asheville’s Black history and expertly broke down the significance of each stop without a script. I was only expecting a history tour but Dwayne prompted the group to discuss the impact of Asheville’s past on the present day. He even challenged us to consider our lifestyles’ impact on the planet. All in all, the tour was an enlightening and energizing way to spend an afternoon in Asheville.
