what can you guys teach me about radical empathy?

#radicalempathy #empathy

When the world feels divided, we don’t heal by “winning” arguments. We heal by learning to really see and hear one another.

In this post, we share mindful ways to pause before reacting, listen with curiosity, and look for shared values—even when we disagree. Small, everyday choices in how we speak, scroll, and show up can gently build bridges in our families, workplaces, and communities.

Radical Compassion Doesn’t Mean Forgiving the Irredeemable

Radical empathy and radical compassion are central to my philosophy, anarcho-compassionism. They call for seeing others fully, understanding their struggles, their fears, their backgrounds, and even the ways they hurt others. They ask us to listen deeply, to hold space for humanity in all its forms, and to recognize that everyone, even oppressors, is shaped by complex forces. But radical compassion is not moral relativism. It is not an excuse to align ourselves with those who do harm or to […]

Why Calling Nick Fuentes a ‘White Fred Hampton’ Isn’t Just Wrong — It’s Threatening

Frimpong’s video titled “Nick Fuentes: White Fred Hampton. Hear Me Out!” attempts to position Fuentes — a known white nationalist — as analogous to Fred Hampton, the legendary Black Panther and multiracial working‑class organizer. On its face, the move seems provocative — perhaps intentionally so — but on closer inspection it reveals a deeply incoherent political logic, one that betrays both the memory of Hampton and any serious account of solidarity across race, class, and […]

The Weight of the World and the Dread That Never Ends

I hate that phrase — crashing out. It’s a bit cringe, I know. But lately, honestly, that’s the best way I can describe how I’ve been feeling. Like I’ve been slowly crashing the fuck out. My energy, my focus, my optimism — all of it. Just crashing. It’s like the world’s gotten so heavy that I can’t carry it anymore, but somehow I still try. And it’s not even just one thing causing it. It’s everything. It’s the state of the world, the country, the chaos that never seems […]

> ... you could even say that India spearheaded some of these movements. We had a movement called the Chipko movement, when women hugged trees to prevent their being cut down. But, you know, one of the sort of really, really positive things that I see in the world today is that even high courts and supreme courts are beginning to recognize these ideas. I mean, in New Zealand recently, there was a judgment from — I think it was the Supreme Court — that recognized the personhood of a river.

“A Process of Violence”: Indian Author Amitav Ghosh on How Colonialism Fueled the Climate Crisis

As talks at the Glasgow U.N. climate summit accelerate, we look at how the roots of the climate crisis date back to Western colonialism with award-winning Indian author Amitav Ghosh, who examines the violent exploitation of human life and the natural environment in his new book, “The Nutmeg’s Curse: Parables for a Planet in Crisis.” Ghosh speaks about the political significance of fossil fuels in global politics, saying that “if fossil fuels were to be completely substituted at scale, what you would have is the complete inversion of the world’s geopolitical order.” Ghosh’s previous books include “The Great Derangement: Climate Change and the Unthinkable” and the novel “Gun Island.”

Since I’m recovering from a medical procedure yesterday (kidney stone zap!), I didn’t think it prudent to participate in my local #NoKings rally today, especially in the heat. So while my family went, I supported quietly from home. And since my son borrowed my “Embrace Radical Empathy” shirt to match his mom, I wore this instead.
