Culture Shock!

This video is an example of "culture shock," stressing how two cultures that are geographically so close to each other can be "shockingly" different.

  1. As I watched the video it took me back to the many times I have walked out of Philadelphia International Airport after returning from the rez. Thinking back on those experiences led me to conclude that "culture shock" is not the appropriate term for the experience. A shock is typically something that stuns you at first and then goes away rather quickly. What is really experienced is more like "culture withdraw"
