This project illuminates the diverse histories within the environmental movement that are often overlooked, watered-down, or entirely erased. Throughout the video’s progression, friends of IE unpack the vital contributions that Black, Indigenous + people of color have made to the environmental movement. Our goal is to support these often-overlooked narratives + the original stewards of our lands; encourage folks to reclaim their relationships with nature; and amplify initiatives that are creating a more just + equitable future for all people + the planet. • We are so grateful for IE's community members, council members, and friends for helping us bring this project to life + we're so excited to share it in full, and engage in discussions + critiques of it with you all. • Our intentions with the project: • illuminate historically-overlooked narratives of community members, organizers + original stewards of Turtle Island. • shed light on the contributions Black, Indigenous + people of color have made to the environmental movement. • encourage folks to reclaim their relationships with the nature they're already a part of • amplify initiatives that are creating a more just + equitable future for all people + the planet • 💻Edited by Simrah Farrukh / simrahfarrukh • Produced by Phil Aiken / philthefixer • Research by Lexi Hernandez / lexiiimh • Script by Amira Chandni / amirachandni • Narration by Leah Thomas / greengirlleah • Graphics by Annabelle Golden / graphicsandgrain • Animations by Amanda Zhu / amndazhu • Photo Animations by Riley Lockett / riley.lockett • Additional Photo Animations by Simrah Farrukh • Features by • D'nae Henderson / dnaetheehistorian • Sage Lenier / sagelenier • Jordan Marie Daniel / nativein_la • Summer Dean / climatediva • Pınar Ateş Sinopoulos-Lloyd / queerquechua • Jade Begay / jadethemighty • Music by Sarah the Illstrumentalist, Iso Indies, Henyao, Matt Large, DAJANA • Special thanks to the IE Council, IE Community + IE Team • We are deeply grateful for the IE experts + community members that expressed their truths with us, shared their pieces with us, + helped us express the histories explored in this video.
