Culture is a fascinating thing!  What people eat, what rights people have, what people wear, what is okay, what is not okay, all that and MORE is determined by culture. 

American children (and later adults) are exposed to a culture that has some special characteristics to it.  It is important to understand the culture, the sea we’re swimming in.  That understanding allows one to see the road being traveled, what the scenery looks like, and where the road might be leading, as well as alternative paths. 

Camp Augusta staff watch the majority of these videos, as well a few others.
