Our theme for August is “Tales Across Cultures” – a month-long dive into stories that transcend place and exist in multiple cultures throughout the years. Today’s episode, we’re looking at a story about stranger danger: Little Red Riding Hood. She walks through the woods in a red cloak. Carrying bread. Or wine. Or medicine. She’s headed to her grandmother’s house. But in the shadows… something waits. A wolf. A stranger. A danger dressed in fur. This is the story of Little Red Riding Hood—a fairytale we think we know. A girl. A wolf. A warning. But this story is older than the Brothers Grimm. Older than Perrault. It’s been whispered by grandmothers, painted in caution signs, and twisted into horror films. Is she an innocent victim? A rebellious teen? A symbol of growing up? Or is she something more dangerous? Let’s step off the path—and into the woods.
