As we celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month and the release of Mitali Perkins Movie “Rickshaw Girl” we are re-posting this episode.
Which borders have you crossed? How do we view national, emotional, socio-economic, religious & cultural borders in our lives? As we consider border crossing stories and relationships with others who are different from ourselves, our worldview expands. Authors Samuel Parker and Mitali Perkins share their stories and experiences about developing cultural fluidity through relationships.
In addition, they offer several suggested resources such as the TED talk by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie and books like Refugee, Devil’s Highway and At Play in the Fields of the Lord to help us gain perspective and relevant insight to the journeys and stories of others.
Borders are everywhere. How we view those borders will shape and mold how we interact and give access to the stories of others. Join us at our table as we discuss this relevant topic.
