Learn this week about Native American views on death and funeral practices. Our guest who is indigenous herself shares how you can best support a friend from another culture.

While each Native American Tribe has unique funeral practices, there is a lot of commonality in their beliefs about death and how the body should be treated afterwards. Understanding these beliefs is important to honor the deceased and support the bereaved.
