Aha Moment: A Bridge Between Cultures

The World

Chie Sakakibara grew up in Japan but became fascinated with North American Indians after seeing them in the movie “Dances with Wolves.” Her interest brought her to Alaska, as a student of cultural geography, where she continues to find connections between Inuit culture and her own. Produced by Studio 360’s Jenny Lawton.

Do you support journalism that strengthens our democracy?

At The World, we believe strongly that human-centered journalism is at the heart of an informed public and a strong democracy. We see democracy and journalism as two sides of the same coin. If you care about one, it is imperative to care about the other.

Every day, our nonprofit newsroom seeks to inform and empower listeners and hold the powerful accountable. Neither would be possible without the support of listeners like you. If you believe in our work, will you give today? We need your help now more than ever!
