About this Death Cafe
This event's goal is to introduce a mainly student population to the concept of their own motality with an intersectional lens. The GITA mission is to create an environment that is comfortable and welcoming to all and the Death Cafe aims to reflect that as well.
About Julia Bishop
My name is Julia and I work at the Gender Institute for Teaching and Advocacy (GITA). The death positivity movement is something I have been passionate about for the last several years and is something I want to expose my peers to. I am currently wrapping up my undergrad in gerontology and am invested in empowering those with making end of life decisions. I have been working with at risk communities for the last four years and have found there to be so many intersectional reasons for death to be at the table when it comes to negotiating the quality of life for underserved communities. Other than working at the GITA I also work for Colorado Coalition for the Homeless where I serve chronically homeless individuals in a harm reduction facility.
