Earth, I Thank You

Anne Spencer's garden is one of the most significant examples of a preserved African American garden in the United States. A modest and deeply personal space, it is imbued with stories of civil rights advocacy, literary genius, and the many historic figures who walked its paths. Earth, I Thank You premiered at the Smithsonian’s Museum of African American History and Culture and subsequently screened at the Frick Collection in NY.
