Borrow a Stereotype

Series: CBC News Sunday
Started in Europe, the Living Library is introduced in California. The project's main idea is to "check out" a person instead of a book. The process allows the borrower to face those individuals who make them uncomfortable or have never fully understood. The "lending time" promotes dialogue to get past one's own stereotypes. The Living Library has expanded to Canada.
