'Privilege on Display' 

Editor:

In your lead article in the July 23 issue ("A Walk Around the County"), the writer complains of no longer having face-to-face yoga, lack of access to a gym and only shopping once a week at the North Coast Co-op. He and his wife are experiencing "mental stress," "cabin fever," weight gain and having to hike the same trails in the Arcata Community Forest.

Many people in Humboldt County are worried about paying rent and where the next meal comes from.

This article is highly offensive. Making it your front page story puts NCJ's stamp of approval on it.

White privilege on display on the front page.
