Document Summary
Citizens of the empire - the struggle to claim our humanity. Robert jensen teaches graduate and undergraduate courses in media, law ethics and politics. Much of his work has focused on questions of race through a critique of white privilege and institutionalized racism. One feels pain as hers & wonders how to get rid of it: the other is concerned about overpopulation and questions saving lives when we are in this state (told her to form a group) Do you think that you are helping those who need help by being bitter and sad all the time? told by a friend of humana, who was sad and bitter at the time. Jensen claims that without empathy, without the ability to move outside our own experience, there is no hope of changing the world . We move quickly to help those affected in natural disasters, but not those in war, famine etc. )
