Storytelling for Justice: Filmmaking & Environmental Activism with Dana Michelle Maule

On this episode of Black in the Garden, we explore the intersection of storytelling, environmental justice, and Black history with award-winning filmmaker and activist Dana Michelle Maule. Dana’s latest project, Moncrief Springs, is a powerful travel documentary showcasing how urban tourism can protect Black neighborhoods and preserve their rich cultural legacy. Beyond filmmaking, Dana is a dedicated environmental advocate and a member of the Sierra Club’s Northeast Florida Executive Committee, working to amplify Black voices in the environmental movement. In this conversation, we discuss the importance of greenspaces in historically Black communities, the role of media in driving social change, and how we can all take action to protect our environment and heritage. Join us for an inspiring discussion on using creativity as a tool for activism and the future of Black-led environmental justice. Tune in now!
