Texas Standard For November 27, 2020
This a rebroadcast of the Texas Standard special, “Ofrenda: A Decimation Of People, A Celebration Of Life.” We’ll take a look at the soothing tradition of remembering the dead through food, color and music, in a year when Texas has been hit again by natural disasters, a global pandemic and an economy that is fighting to stay afloat. We’ll see Texans pulling together to feed each other, and how the mystery of the monarch butterfly invites us to think about rebirth and the afterlife, all today on the Texas Standard:
