Happy Pride month y‘all!

Four years ago, as part of their Heritage Initiative, the National Park Service released “a comprehensive, first-of-its-kind project to explore how the legacy of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer individuals can be recognized, preserved and interpreted for future generations.”

❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🖤🤎🤍 Happy reading!

Not a casual read, I recommend this academic work for anyone with a serious interest in the NPS and Women's Equality.

“Think about waking up one morning and finding you don‘t have a voice in anything.”

I‘ve been glued to the news this week. This book added to my anger and anxiety. #ibelieveher #nps #cvnp

“Was it crazy, she wondered, to be as grateful as she felt now, for moments like this, in a world that had atomic bombs in it- and concentration camps, and gas chambers?”

Trying to avoid political posting in Litsy, as this is a sanity haven, but this image from a supporter of Alt NPS, the social media activists speaking out in the shut down of comms from the national parks, is too good not to share. Someone should write this novel! Park rangers leading the resistance actually makes perfect sense! Check out www.altnps.org if you want to learn more. #dystopian #rebelrangers #science #nps

beagle.mama I saw this earlier and laughed out loud. I'm so proud of them. 💜 8y

March: Book Three | Andrew Aydin, John Lewis
post image

In 2015 I was one of 300 people selected by the National Parks Service to re-create the Selma to Montgomery march on its 50th anniversary. The day before we were to arrive in the city of Montgomery Amelia Boynton was driven by our line of modern-day foot soldiers to give us encouragement. I will never forget that moment.

becausetrains 😳 that is amazing @JaimitaPR! I count myself fortunate that I got to meet John Lewis, but getting to actually reenact the March? #BLM #NPS 8y
megt What an honor! I can only imagine how moving that experience must have been. 8y

DivineDiana I did not know about Hampton Park in Towson. Will have to visit when I go to visit my family. 8y
Graciouswarriorprincess @DivineDiana It's a beautiful house and grounds. I didn't know about it either and one of the park rangers at Fort McHenry told me about it. 8y
DivineDiana @Graciouswarriorprincess Thank you. My sister just visited the Harriet Tubman Underground Railroad Park in Church Creek Maryland and found it very moving. Didn't know about that one either! 8y
Graciouswarriorprincess @DivineDiana That's on my list to visit. 8y
