Fry Bread and Family: Exploring the Importance of Extended Family for Indigenous Communities

Everyone Dies (Every1Dies)

How do I help a Native American friend who is sick or grieving?

It may be awkward when someone has a different culture to know what to do. Each tribe, person and family can be different. Dr. Jeanna Ford joins us again to talk about her experiences in her culture and as a medical professional and to give us advice and help to understand. This is especially important for anyone in a healthcare profession or caregiving role.
We celebrate the role of family with fry bread, a favorite food that is made and eaten together and its history. We finish off with a beautiful essay about the sacred connection with the sun.
