A Walk in Your Shoes (1999)

NOGGIN's provocative educational series "A Walk in Your Shoes" takes two real people from completely different backgrounds and switches their lives, physically transplanting them in each other's environments while cameras roll. The live-action show engages viewers in exchanges that underscore the universality of human experience. Each episode of the series provides a glimpse into the lives of two new individuals, so that over the course of a season, viewers will learn about a wide range of people, places and ways of life. As viewers watch, they discover that there are far more similarities than there are differences between us, and they develop greater empathy for people they don't know. Online diaries, photos and clips from the show are available on Noggin, serving Noggin's commitment to online and television convergence.
