Interview with Keerti Gopal
Inherited host Shaylyn Martos sits down with storyteller Keerti Gopal, whose sound-rich story “Island of People” was a closer look into the climate resilience and cultural memory of the Tao, and how the effects of climate crisis and industrialization of Lanyu is changing their land forever. Together, they talk about Keerti’s experiences in multimedia journalism and building community in Taiwan. Keerti Gopal is a multimedia journalist, documentary filmmaker, and National Geographic Explorer. In 2021, she graduated from Northwestern University, where she organized with the youth-led Sunrise Movement Chicago and researched youth climate activism. She then moved to Taiwan for her Fulbright-National Geographic Storytelling Fellowship, where she documented stories of climate action and resilience through photo, film, and written media. She’s now based in Brooklyn, NY and has completed fellowships at Inside Climate News, The Lever, and Solutions Journalism Network. She is a graduate of One World Media’s Global Short Docs Forum for international filmmakers. Keerti is particularly interested in climate justice solutions and storytelling that center frontline communities and marginalized expertise. In her free time, she likes to hike, bike, and read fiction! Inherited is a critically acclaimed climate storytelling show made by, for, and about young people.
