Bringing together a multitude of insights and perspectives on death, dying and grief feels all the more urgent in this time of Covid-19.
We have invited researchers, artists, and educators to discuss various topics including Blackfoot perspectives on death and dying, the queer materiality of death, how animals grieve, ecological approaches to death and dying, and death in popular culture & performance.

- Rebecca Many Grey Horses: "Taking the Wolf Trail to the Ancestors”
