Holler – A Graphic Memoir of Resistance with Denali Sai Nalamalapu
This episode of Big Blend Radio’s Nature Connection show features climate storyteller and activist Denali Sai Nalamalapu, author of “Holler: A Graphic Memoir of Rural Resistance” (Timber Press / Hachette, May 13, 2025).
Based in Southwest Virginia, Nalamalapu is a powerful new voice in climate storytelling and a leader in one of Appalachia’s most courageous environmental resistance movements. Holler chronicles the fight against the Mountain Valley Pipeline through the eyes of six local activists—a teacher, a nurse, a photographer, and more—who dared to challenge corporate power and government complicity in the heart of coal country.
The conversation explores:
- How visual storytelling makes climate issues more accessible.
- The diverse perspectives and skill sets that strengthen grassroots movements.
- The importance of community involvement in resisting fossil fuel expansion.
- How innovation, education, and personal stories can drive climate action.
- Why self-care and balance are vital for sustaining long-term activism.
Blending personal insight, lived experience, and stunning visual storytelling, Nalamalapu offers a moving and empowering look at resilience, resistance, and the future of the climate movement. More at: https://denali-sai.com/
