In this episode we will explore the journey of John Corbett, which began in Durban, South Africa. John grew up as a white South African in an all white community. As a child, John had very limited exposure to the negative impacts of apartheid on other citizens until a single event in grade school made him realize that his black school mates were not being treated fairly. This set John on a journey of "continuous curiosity" to expand his world view, and understand the perspectives of other cultures.
