Spark Talk: The Social Autopsy by Dr. Stefan Timmermans (Jan 14, 2022)
Description: The social autopsy takes the death of a set of individuals as its starting point and then critically and systematically examines social and political conditions to explain these deaths and generate awareness and policy change. After discussing the methodology, Dr. Timmermans will provide three contemporary examples of excess deaths calling out for social autopsies: school shootings, Black deaths at the hands of police, and migrant border deaths.
