About the event
Mexican cultures mixed with European beliefs to forge a diversity of practices around November 2 that reflect different peoples’ experiences with death and honoring the dead. An examination of different practices across time and space, using urban and rural Oaxacan examples–especially from Teotitlán del Valle–illustrate how these practices of honoring the dead reflect people’s beliefs and experiences.
