Death and Everyday Life

1.00 credits · Undergraduate

Explore death as an undeniably pervasive way by which we organize everyday life. By examining artistic, media, historical, theoretical, empirical and activist material, take up questions regarding how life and death chances are distributed among different communities, demographics, and populations. Through encounters with ideas and concepts at the intersection of death and disability studies, reflect on how we may die as we live, with care, dignity, interdependence, and a sense of shared humanity.
