Diaspora Death Doulas are changing the way people die.


The last article I reported as a freelancer, back in June last year, finally came out this week with the launch of a new website about death called the Inevitable.rip.
The story is about a group of "death doulas" in Baltimore who use traditions from Africa and the Caribbean to accompany the dying. It's about death, magic, and the ways diaspora communities maintain traditions. It's precisely the kind of story I hope to showcase more often through LAZO LETTERS, and I hope you'll read it.
