Intersectional Environmentalist, Fashion, and Diandra Marizet

Diandra Marizet stopped through Serenbe in December 2019, while on a road trip from New York to her family's home in Texas. She found us while searching for farm stays she could visit along the way, and was drawn in by Serenbe's design intention. Her afternoon here made an impression, and her subsequent work on Intersectional Environmentalist made an impression on us.

Diandra Marizet is a founding member of Intersectional Environmentalist, which is a platform with the goal to dismantling systems of oppression in the environmental movement. The founding group created a Council of environmental activists and sustainability advocates that are committed to identifying the ways in which injustices happening to marginalized communities and the earth are interconnected.

In this episode, we talk with Diandra about how her background in fashion, most recently with Kate Space, and how that lead to climate and environmental activism.
