One in seven women experiences postpartum depression (PPD), with more new mothers dying from suicide or overdose than anything else. Correspondent Tracy Smith examines the heartbreak that can come when postpartum depression is not diagnosed or treated; talks with experts and sufferers hoping to destigmatize PPD; and looks at a new drug, Zurzuvae, the first-ever pill for PPD, set to become available this week.

ALMANAC: December 10
"Sunday Morning" looks at important historical events on this date.

ARTS: Luna Luna: An art world amusement park is reborn
In 1987 André Heller convinced some of the most notable artists of the late 20th century (including Keith Haring, David Hockney, Roy Lichtenstein and Kenny Scharf) to design an avant garde amusement park in Hamburg, Germany, called Luna Luna. But the spectacle that was supposed to tour the world ended up in litigation, locked away in shipping containers in the Texas desert. Now, 40 year later, thanks to an investment by mega-rapper and art enthusiast Drake, the artistic remnants of Luna Luna are once again opening to the public in Los Angeles. Correspondent Jonathan Vigliotti talks with Michael Goldberg, who helped uncover the long-forgotten treasures, and with Joel Searles, whose restoration team is bringing each masterpiece back to life.

U.S.:  The increasing hazard of black lung disease facing coal miners
Coal mining has always been a dangerous job, with one in every five miners ending up with "black lung" disease. But today, in Appalachia, miners are suffering from black lung at increasingly younger ages. "Sunday Morning" senior contributor Ted Koppel talks with miners and union officials who say coal companies routinely break the rules that could help protect their employees' health; and looks at a new government proposal that might offer real protection for miners, but which is facing opposition from some in Congress.

COMMENTARY: Charles M. Blow on reversing the Great Migration
In his 2001 book, "The Devil You Know: A Black Power Manifesto," New York Times columnist Charles M. Blow wrote about the Great Migration (in which six million Black Americans in the early to mid-20th century moved from the South to the North and West seeking greater economic and political opportunities) and called for a "reverse migration" back to the South, where Black Americans would once again be the majority. He talks about expanding that thesis into the new HBO documentary, "South to Black Power."
