echo 002: three weeks out

This episode originally aired March 3, 2017 on Robin Hood Radio.

"The Practice In Feeling" investigates empathy. We asked ourselves if empathy can be taught. How does empathy manifest in our daily lives? How can a person come from a place of understanding when they feel targeted? Is empathy a practice? This investigation was launched in response to the feeling of increasing divisiveness in our community.
