How should we interact with strangers?

Who is that person sitting next to you on the bus? On the next Your Call, we'll talk about how we interact with strangers in public spaces--the grocery store, walking down the street, navigating the internet... Many of us are taught at a young age that "strangers" are not to be trusted. But why? And who exactly is a stranger? Should kids approach them differently than "adults"? Join us live at 11 or send us an email at feedback@yourcallradio.org. What cautions should we take as we move through the world? How could we benefit from meeting people outside our normal circles? It's Your Call, with Sandip Roy and you.

Guests:
Barry Korengold, San Francisco cab driver

Melinda Blau, author of Consequential Strangers

Antonie Del Bonta, program coordinator and instructor for KidPower
