About this episode
New York City council staffers plan to rally tomorrow in front of City Hall to demand a living wage. Also, funeral homes have been declining in numbers in New York -- and across the country. Erica Hill decided to open one in 2021 in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, it was an unusual career move. But Hill is trying to rethink the death care industry, and make it a little bit better for the living. WNYC’s Kerry Shaw caught up with Hill to learn more about her new funeral home, Sparrow.
