Climate Change And… new documentary film coming soon from @climatelisteningproject and @westmarioninc

POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

Join us Friday for a First Site Visit to @westmarioninc’s Resilience Hub! Director Paula Swepson is a Keynote Speaker at McDowell Chamber of Commerce Annual Legislative Gathering (11am-1pm) and we will convene at the building directly following (148 East Hudgins Street, Marion, NC).

The West Marion Resilience Hub will partner with the City of Marion to breathe new life into the historic Hudgins High/Mountain View School, a treasured African-American institution, transforming it into a 66,000-square-foot, state-of-the-art mixed-use community center. This project not only honors the legacy of our ancestors but also reimagines this iconic building as a beacon of resilience and progress. The center will serve as a vital resource, offering essential services such as behavioral health support, healthcare, childcare, and workforce development. By addressing critical issues like public health, food insecurity, and transportation barriers, the hub will foster both environmental sustainability and socio-economic growth. Importantly, the hub will also function as an emergency shelter during climate-related disasters, providing a safe haven equipped with trauma-informed medical services and mutual aid support. This transformation honors the past while paving the way for a brighter, more resilient future for all.

Thank you Southern Shorts Awards 💚✨

“Climate Change And... brings up important issues like community and assistance in the wake of weather centric disasters. At least that’s where I think I’m going but instead the film gets softer and gives more of a personal perspective through Dayna the director’s participation. *The mountain vista footage must be stock. I enjoyed it and admired the cavalier grass roots approach and how it gives a good feel to the film.”

“This short doc does a great job of showcasing a community rebuilding itself after devastation and decline. I loved seeing the people coming together and sharing their stories. I really did enjoy the film and would like to see more like it.”

“I found the overall film to be very thorough and interesting especially on a topic I was not familiar with. Due to the way in which the film was presented, I actually wanted to know even more as you presented the individuals in the group very well and their goals in a compelling and engaging manner.”

* the beautiful mountain vistas were real drone shots not stock haha 🤣❤️
