Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
Tea, scones, and…death? A local library is creating space for people to gather and discuss the taboo topic of death with facilitators. Originally created in the U.K., so-called “death cafes” are catching on in the States as a way to help people raise end-of-life issues before those decisions are imminent. Kojo and his guests discuss how death cafes work, and explore the ethics surrounding end-of-life planning.
Guests
- Kathie Conn Facilitator, End-of-Life Healing Transition Celebrant
- Daniel Sulmasy Georgetown University professor and medical ethicist
