About this episode
LAist Studios & USC Annenberg's School of Journalism Present: How COVID Changed Everything
A series where graduate students in the USC Annenberg School of Journalism examine the many ways—both dramatic and nuanced—that the pandemic has changed life in ways we are only now beginning to understand.
Part 3: Acting
While the pandemic caused a lot of stasis, it also inspired plenty of action. Once we accepted the changes that the pandemic brought, what did we do with them? How did we take action? In this episode: LA cultural workers fight for better work conditions, one survivor decides to fight back against domestic violence, a small foundation keeps the legacy of a ground-breaking Finnish gay artist alive, and a nurse rethinks the way we process death and dying.
Content Warning: This series contains sensitive subject matter and mentions of domestic violence. Listener discretion is advised.
