Culture Shock

When we experience a new and unfamiliar culture, we often feel like outsiders. Barriers to entry can be high as we are met with traditions and expectations unlike our own. At the same time, crossing cultures help us become more fully human. Micaela Blei, the grandchild of Holocaust survivors, faces choices about exploring German culture; Anita De Ruvo lives in poverty within a community of great wealth; and after being mistaken for a homeless person, Biar Kon expands his view of humanity. Three storytellers, three interpretations of CULTURE SHOCK, hosted by Wes Hazard.
