The wide open space.
The wildlife sightings.
The quiet trails.
The feeling of standing somewhere bigger than yourself.

Itโs #NationalParksWeek in the US.
Did you know that thereโs racist colonialism deep in the roots of the national parks? These parks began with the violent evictions of the Indigenous peoples who inhabited them, and a colonial understanding of โnatureโ as being uninhabited by people.

Photo of steep, sawtooth mountains silhouetted against a pink sunset sky with scattered clouds. A pond in the foreground reflects the mountains, with wetlands and trees in the middle ground. Text over the sky reads: Want to get ready to protect these places? Throw a public lands picnic!
Photo of a herd of bison with three babies in a green meadow, with a forested hillside beyond. Text over the sky reads: Authoritariasnism wants you alone, passive, and scrolling. Real change starts when we show up in person โ together. Like these bison!
A photo looking into the grand canyon with a double rainbow arching off to the right of the frame. Text over the sky reads: Learn more about how you can step up for public lands at: resistancerangers.org/events
Our next call to action is here! โ
Resistance Rangers invites you to host a community-building gathering to celebrate #NationalParksWeek ๐ฏโโ๏ธ๐ฏ
The goal? To build networks of trust so we are ready for the next protest or action to protect public lands. (Itโs coming...)
Itโs #NationalParksWeek. This week, weโre honoring the original stewards of some of the national parks (such as Yellowstone), before they were colonized by the US government.

Sadly, our National Parks are under attack by the Trump Administration. Which is why it's more important than ever that we preserve and protect these incredible placesโand ensure that future generations of Americans can enjoy their magic, majesty, and breathtaking beauty. (3/3)
