Cultural Horizons of North America[series info]

From the Melting Pot

Students consider the ways in which each person`s unique cultural identity is influenced by the choices he or she makes every day. Their investigation begins when they observe how generations have passed down the tradition of miniature ship building in Quebec. Then, the children reflect on the challenges and rewards of balancing two cultures when they are introduced to Jaidee and Jinda. Their mother was born in Thailand and practices Buddhism; their Norwegian-American father is a Christian. As this program closes, cast members describe cultural elements that influence who they are and how they live.
