Activism in Yosemite: Pride, Protest & Perseverance with SJ Joslin

We sit down with SJ Joslin, the nonbinary park ranger and wildlife biologist who made national headlines after being fired from Yosemite National Park for helping to hang a massive trans pride flag on El Capitan.SJ opens up about their journey of embracing a nonbinary identity, what it meant to come out, and how their work in conservation and bat research intersected with their personal story. They share the inside scoop on the controversy surrounding their firing, the behind-the-scenes fallout with the National Park Service, and why this case has become a flashpoint for LGBTQ+ rights, workplace discrimination, and visibility in federal service.We also discuss SJ’s activism, their fight for justice with the support of Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility (PEER), and what comes next in their journey as a scientist, advocate, and voice for the LGBTQ+ community.If you care about trans rights, queer visibility, environmental activism, or social justice, this is a must-listen episode. 🌈🔥Watch the full episode on YouTube HERE!🔥 Subscribe to HOT AIR now—new episodes drop every Tuesday & Friday with unfiltered convos, chaotic stories, and all the queer tea you can handle.🎧 Don’t miss a moment: Follow on Instagram & TikTok @_hotairpod for behind-the-scenes, memes, and bonus content!Visit: HotAirWithJoshuaRobert.com to submit listener stories, topic suggestions and shop merch!
