“Dear Death Workers,

More than ever, the global grief crisis (amplified by genocide, climate collapse, and the fall of empire, among many other collective and personal losses) calls us to create spaces where we can collectively acknowledge and bear witness to our sorrows.

We give our communities safe places of welcome and affirmation to express collective grief.

If we combine our efforts in doing so, we may spark a new and significant wave of grief awareness.

Let's amplify our energies on April 27,

By creating grief-accepting spaces in public we begin to change the cultural narrative about where grief expression is acceptable. On Annual Grief-in-Public Day death workers, grief workers and anyone else who'd like to join them, create a public display that raises awareness about the Grief Crisis…”
