California park ranger fired after helping hang transgender pride flag on popular Yosemite monolith

Non-Employed Non-Binary Park Ranger

A non-binary park ranger was fired by Yosemite National Park after they were caught hanging a transgender pride flag from the park’s famous El Capitan rock formation in May.

Shannon “SJ” Joslin, 35, was first hired as a ranger and wildlife biologist at the park in 2021 — their dream job that they said was stripped away in a violation of their First Amendment right.
