This week on Pop Banzai, Jay and Travis string together some pop culture pieces that touch on the issue of assimilation. When moving from one culture to another, what are the challenges people face? How does one decide what parts of their past do they take with them? The podcast takes a look at Jim Jarmusch’s 1984 film “Stranger than Paradise”, Gogo Bordello’s album “Super Taranta” and a poem by Richard Blanco entitled ” Looking for the Gulf Motel”.
