Review of The Culture Is Changing

Not being a hunter myself, I wondered how much I could to relate to a story about the decline of hunting culture in Vermont. Surprisingly, this simple montage of voices helped me appreciate the sense of loss felt by these hunters. One woman talks about how meaningful it was to learn hunting skills from her parents, and her disappointment that her children are not interested in learning them from her. A man talks about how deer hunting tunes you into nature and your surroundings, and another about the bond hunters develop with land on which they hunt. In a very short time, this piece gave me insight into a culture that has always been foreign to me.
