As November draws near, families around the state are preparing for Día de los Muertos. The holiday, which originated in Mexico, speaks to all of our feelings about lost loved ones, both sad and happy. Families create small altars, called ofrendas, that bear pictures, flowers, favorite foods, and lots of love. Today, we'll talk to three Michiganders about what the day and its traditions mean to them.  GUESTS:  Reyna Garcia, Grand Rapids artist, social activist, and cultural ambassador Kim Kozlowski, reporter at The Detroit News.  who You can read Kozlowski's story about connecting with her late mom’s Mexican heritage through ofrendas here. Sarah Nasser, mental health counsellor by training. Nasser's ofrenda at the DIA this year honors her family's Lebanese heritage.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
