Grieving Out Loud: How Media is Revolutionizing Our Grief

Date TBA

Every person will experience grief in their lifetime, but it's still a taboo subject in our country. Innovative media & content are changing this by bringing grief to the forefront, depicting it in a way that is relatable & honest. Celebrities have opened up publicly about their grief journeys, sharing their insights & experiences with the world. Our panel will discuss the current state of media portrayals of grief, the impact these portrayals have on audiences, & how we can continue to push for authentic grief storylines & representations in media to normalize these experiences and feelings.
