Learning About Death, Dying, and How to Do It Better

Death Doula Darnell Lamont Walker is listening to the dying and speaking up to advocate for their needs.  As a Death Doula who is also male and black, Darnell works to facilitate conversations about death in the black community.  He’s a unique blend of skills and talents - an Emmy-nominated children’s writer, a documentary filmmaker, and a death doula. 

Darnell is a listener, a companion to people with serious illness.  He’s working to create change around our perceptions of grief, death discussions, and how we approach dying in the U.S.
