Take the 2023 PBS Survey: to.pbs.org/pbssurvey2023q
Across cultures and time, humanity has sought to make meaning of death through ritual, art, myths, and religion. So how has this belief, or lack thereof, helped humans process death? Our host, Curly Velasquez, seeks to explore this question through expert anthropological perspective, and his own origins - by sharing a death and grieving tradition carried through generations by the women in his family.
Made possible with funding from The Corporation for Public Broadcasting.
