The Sycamore Dance. A gap with a story.

The tree that lives on, if you can summon it.

The tree sprang to life from the ground. And went to ground.

But betwixt it holds the sun, water, wind, and space.

And the rest are but embellishments in the firmament of life.

β€œThe purpose of this exercise of free speech is to disrupt without violence and draw attention to the fact that public lands in the United States are under attack,” it reads. β€œThe Department of the Interior issued a series of secretarial orders that position drilling and mining interests as the favored uses of America’s public lands and threaten to scrap existing land protections and conservation measures. Firing 1,000s of staff regardless of position or performance across the nation is the first step in destabilizing the protections in place for these great places.”
β€œThese losses, while deeply personal and impactful, may also be invisible to visitors and members of the public β€” we are shining a spotlight on them by putting a distress flag on El Capitan in view of Firefall. Think of it as your public lands on strike.”

Brilliant protest. Yosemite National Park workers hung an upside-down American flag β€” traditionally a symbol of distress or a national threat β€” thousands of feet off the ground on the side of El Capitan.

Fired Park Rangers Try to β€˜Open Some Hearts’ on Social Media Some rangers decided it was worth the risk to speak out online about their firings and share their love of the National Park Service.

The National Park Service fired many of its park rangers as part of a reduction in the federal work force. Some rangers decided it was worth the risk to speak out online about the cuts and share their love of the Park Service.

β€œIt’s scary, but it was the right thing to do.”
