Episode 21: Racism in Deathcare

Joél Simone Anthony, sacred grief practitioner, licensed funeral director, and deathcare educator (also known as The Grave Woman) talks with Deathcare Decoded about institutionalized racism in the deathcare space. Our conversation covers micro and macro aggressions in the workplace, the historic whitewashing of mortuary training programs when it comes to caring for diverse populations, and the importance of having conversations about these topics in order to move forward and evolve the deathcare space.

Hosted by Justin Crowe, Founder & CEO of Parting Stone, and Alexandra Jo, Culture and Content Manager at Parting Stone.
