Shatzi Weisberger: Meet The 91-Year-Old Death Educator
Jewish Voice for Peace, Weisberger is there with one of her famous signs. On the LGBTQ&A podcast this week, she says, "I was a political lesbian for many years.
I just loved being around lesbians...one of my earlier demonstrations was here in New York City and we did a die-in along with other people lying on the ground.
And I started to cry because I felt that I was in the right place, doing the right things with the right people. I felt very together about it.
I have been an activist ever since." You can listen to the full interview with Shatzi Weisberger on Apple Podcasts or read excerpts below. Jeffrey Masters: Have you always been interested in and comfortable with death, or has that only come with age?SW: Well, I was a nurse for 47 years and my main interest was birth, coming into the world, and death, leaving the world.
