Hoy queremos compartir este mensaje de agradecimiento de parte de las chicas de @imillaskate a todas las personas que han apoyado este camino. Cada aporte, cada gesto de confianza y cada muestra de apoyo han hecho posible que este proyecto siga creciendo y abriendo nuevas oportunidades para jóvenes que están transformando narrativas desde su propia identidad, fuerza y creatividad. 🙏🏻✨ ¡Gracias por creer en este trabajo y por ayudar a que estas historias continúen! Lo que se está construyendo va mucho más allá del skate: son espacios de representación, comunidad e inspiración para las nuevas generaciones, y todo esto sigue siendo posible gracias a quienes deciden caminar junto a este proceso. 💜 Sigue el enlace en nuestra bio para apoyar! 👆🏽 #gratitud #imillaskate #Skateboard #cholitas #bolivia

#EarthDay with Rebecca Basaure (@rbasaure ) & Mariano Carranza (@marianocarranza ) ImillaSkate follows a collective of Indigenous women in Bolivia redefining identity, movement, and connection to place on their own terms. Wearing traditional polleras, these young women skate through the streets of Cochabamba, turning their boards into expressions of cultural pride, freedom, and belonging within the landscapes they call home. In a world where being both Indigenous and female often means fighting to be seen, ImillaSkate captures a powerful shift driven by resilience, sisterhood, and community. “From the first time we saw a cholita in pollera drop into a bowl, we knew this was more than skateboarding, it was resistance,” the filmmakers share. “This film is a love letter to Bolivia, to sisterhood, and to everyone who’s ever been told they don’t belong.” Featuring @rbasaure @marianocarranza An @Optimist film presented by @Vans With @natalieconneely @christemple @zachingrasci @hoodablah @jennamkelly @lapir0 @Pachamama_Sabia @ImillaSkate Now streaming on Documentary+ Earth Collection.

✨The time is here! ✨ In just over a week, we’ll be deep in the Peruvian Amazon. 🌿 “Asháninka: Wisdom of the Healers” is our new documentary about the sacred plant medicine traditions of the Asháninka people, and Amazonian-Andean descendent @rosavespinoza ’s scientific mission to protect and honor this ancient knowledge before it’s lost. At its heart, our story is about the profound relationship between human health and the health of the natural world.  Grateful for the support of the Fujifilm GFX 2025 Challenge Grant and the UC Berkeley Center for the Science of Psychedelics x UC Berkeley Journalism for believing this story needs to exist. None of this happens without our core team @rosavespinoza @natalieconneely @pachamama_sabia @rbasaure @lizeth — and @fujifilmx_us @scipsychedelics @berkeleyjournalism  🙏🏼 ✨See you on the other side.✨

Banksy lived up to his name, he came to us a frightened and shy shelter puppy with warms and kennel cough and became the coolest most lovable dog. He had more adventures than some people have in a lifetime. My sweet boy Banksy, from Kansas to LA and everywhere in between, you’ve been my companion and adventure buddy for 15 years. People have come and gone, but we’ve remained the same. Our love unchanged. As I mourn your loss I feel overwhelmingly grateful for you. For everyone who helped me raise you. For all the years together. The cross country roadtrips, car camping, long hikes, lazy walks, naps in the sun and morning cuddles. Thank you for sticking around as long as you could my sweet puppy. You will be forever loved and missed. Rest peacefully and come fetch me at the end.

¡Gracias familia! Your support of @rewilders_bolivia has gotten us to 29% of our goal! We are hoping to reach 80% of our goal to get all funds towards this film. We are asking you for your support of our efforts. Bolivia was listed as the 2nd country in the world with the most deforestation due to wildfires. We are excited to share that Rewilders’ director and producer @rbasaure will be heading to @senda_verde soon to document the wildfires and rewilding efforts with your support!! 🙏🏽✨💚🌱🇧🇴 @pachamama_sabia #rewilding #rewild #bolivia #sendaverde #reforestacion #philanthropy #amazon #rainforest #amazonia #documentary #impact
