When I was very little I read (I think in the National Geographic or similar) about a woman from perhaps some Amazonian tribe (or similar) who was taken, taught to speak english and educated, then spoke about her experience and the differences between cultures etc. I've tried searching for this for some time without success, anybody have any idea of where to find this story or maybe it rings a bell to you? I remember finding it fascinating but unfortunately cant' remember enough key details to track it down...
I saw a really cool documentary of a similar case of three of the "Lost Boys", the thousands of male children refugees from Sudan. A few came to the US to live a new life and it followed them for a few months. I think it was called something like "God Forget Us"....
[Edit]: God Grew Tired of Us (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/God_Grew_Tired_of_Us), it was really good and I saw it at the Sundance Film Festival. Unfortunately I've never heard of your lady Meowster...

I know exactly who you're talking about! I was also very inspired by this story (http://tinyurl.com/3yaykl). I'm sure that link will provide you adequate information to relocate the full story Meow. It's definitely one that I would highly recommend to everyone!
;D
I take it you're wise to mah joking ways then. Well, in all seriousness, you may want to take a look here (http://tinyurl.com/ndqssu) or perhaps here (http://tinyurl.com/253ftf). Those sites may have further information with regard to what you're looking for.
That looks amazing, Trent R. Will definitely try to check that out. If anyone else has any other similar links, would be cool to share.
That's definitely something I'm interested in, yes, I do recall something but not very clear and rather foggy between my mind.
