Description: "This book provides insight into American college students' experiences and reactions to poverty, inequality, humility, and kindness. The stories are real life encounters students have had with strangers in other countries and cultures. In most cases, how they have internalized the interaction and why it is important to them is described in the narrative. How they have remembered the person and the interaction over time, is a compelling component of the second portion of the book, the 1990 and 2004 letters and stories."--Website.
