Structural racism has impacted the lives of African Americans in the United States since before the country’s founding.
Although the country has made some progress towards a more equal society, political developments in the 21st century have shown that deep divides remain.
To bridge our divides, our guest, a renowned political scientist calls for ‘radical empathy’ – moving beyond an understanding of others’ lives and pain to understand the origins of our biases.
Deftly weaving together her own experiences with the political, she offers practical steps to call out racism and bring about radical social change.
We welcome the author of, “Radical Empathy, Finding A Path to Bridging Racial Divides”, Terri Givens.
