Death 4/24/2016 with Brian Hougard

Sunday Assembly San Diego is a radically inclusive secular community that meets monthly to hear inspirational talks, connect for service projects, sing songs, and generally celebrate life. Assemblies are free to attend, and everyone is welcome. Live Better: We aim to provide inspiring, thought-provoking, and practical ideas to help people live the lives they want to lead, and to become the people they aspire to be. Help Often: Assemblies are communities of people of action, building lives of purpose, and encouraging us all to help anyone in need and to support each other. We take on service projects together because we believe that helping makes life better. Wonder More: Hearing a talk, singing as one, listening to readings, and even playing games helps us to connect with each other, and to the awesome world in which we live. Our theme this month: Death Speaker Topic: Dealings With Death: A Cross Cultural Perspective Our Speaker: Brian Hougard Through the rituals around death, cultures promote the collective processing of loss. Brian Hougard, anthropology aficionado, will describe how different cultures provide humans - in the singular and the collective - the means for dealing with death and elaborate on death rituals from several cultures, including ancient mummification, the Day of the Dead Festival in the Americas, and modern- day hospice care.
