I’m still speechless that my short film @asalimovie has been nominated by @naacpimageawards for Outstanding Short Form (Animated) This is a dream come true and after years of tireless work as both an animator and an environmentalist. THANK YOU @naacp this recognition matters more than anything!! I’m so proud of my talented cast and crew 💚🐝 I can’t wait to see where this weird and heartfelt film about bees, monsters, magic and ecological grief goes next. Independent art and media is resilience.

Our greatest challenges can only be addressed together.
On #UNDay, @FAO Champion @mayasideas highlights the power of bringing together people of different generations, backgrounds and areas of expertise.
Collaboration and multilateralism remain essential to building a more sustainable and healthy world for all.
Happy @UnitedNations Day!

Last Friday during Climate Week I was proud to speak out in solidarity with survivors, artists, activists, advocates and allies that came together in Union Square to give voice, to bear witness, to share support and strategy, and to remind one another of the power we have when we rise together. I highlighted the very real connection between violence towards our earth and violence against women. We are strong together!! @vdayorg @feminist @one_billion_rising @campesinasunite
60 Million Survivors Rising is a call to survivors across the United States to find each other, organize, speak out and disrupt the injustice. We heard survivors tell their truths. We sang. We drummed. We connected. We shared support, strategy and ways to take action. Throughout the evening, survivors and activists made visible the connections between the many systems and cultures that enable violence. Our struggles are inextricably connected, and so is our power. Survivors are speaking openly, refusing to have their experiences dismissed, buried, or forgotten. They are demanding accountability and taking their power back.

I voice Samara in @asalimovie and I’m SO excited that ASALI: Power of the Pollinators is heading to the big screen for a LIMITED theatrical release! 🐝💚🎬
This beautiful animated short, directed by environmentalist and animator @mayasideas and executive produced by @violadavis @juveeproductions and Julius Tennon featuring @whoopigoldberg @joyodofu and more is the story of a little bee who survives the destruction of her colony alongside her Queen mother. She meets a colorful group of pollinator friends and a human scientist (voiced by yours truly 🙋🏾♀️), and together, they fight to save their home from the monster that took everything from them.
I’m so proud to lend my voice to Samara and to be part of a story rooted in community, hope, and confronting ecological trauma 🌱
Friends in Los Angeles, please support this film in theaters Sept 11-17th! @lumierecinemala✨
