A WPA-style poster in shades of brown, black, tan, and blue shows a park ranger in silhouette looking at Horseshoe Falls at El Capitan in Yosemite National Park – an upside-down American flag hangs from the cliff. Text reads “Stand up for National Parks & Public Lands Saturday, March 1 – Nationwide day of action - @ResistanceRangers” Text at the bottom reads “433 Park Sites, 433 Protests, 1Day – Worth Fighting For”

Yellow text on an olive background reads “Protect your parks protest – March 1st at noon, @ResistanceRangers”

Yellow text on olive background read “Protest ideas: hand out flyers to cars, put up a sign in front of webcams, hang a banner, hand a flag upside down, march in a gateway town, or rally inside the park. Picket around the park sign, share photos online - #ProtectOurParks #RehireParkRangers - @ResistanceRangers”

Yellow text on an olive background reads “Noon on Saturday March 1st Protect your parks protest – protest at your closest National Park site. Demand that parks and park rangers be protected. With your help, there will be protests at all 433 park sites. @ResistanceRangers”

Park rangers want YOU to help us protect our parks! This Saturday, 3/1, in solidarity with the 50:50:1 movement, plan a protest in support of your closest national park. Do it at 12 noon your time, or whatever best fits your secret plan 👀🤠😏
