EARTHSEED Film Screening with the People’s Kitchen Collective

The Blue Sky Funders Forum is pleased to present a special screening of EARTHSEED: A People’s Journey of Radical Hospitality. This powerful documentary, presented by the People’s Kitchen Collective, explores models for survival and collective futures inspired by Octavia Butler’s Parables, the Black Panther Party, and the global south diaspora.

• Learn from Director Fox Nakai and creator Jocelyn Jackson, who will join us for discussions about the film.
• Explore themes of land, power and justice as they relate to how we connect people to nature, the outdoors, and environmental education — particularly those from BIPOC or otherwise historically marginalized communities.
• Help inspire philanthropy to continue or begin funding innovative cultural and narrative projects that redefine how people connect with nature and the outdoors, as showcased by the transformative work featured in Earth Seed.

A selection of delicious snacks and drinks will be served at the start of the event. Please note that food and non-water beverages are not allowed inside the theater.
