Radical Empathy by Terri Givens
Practicing radical empathy can provide real change in people’s lives – this book will focus on the fact that having empathy is different from practicing empathy. The persistence of white supremacy has to do with the fact that many people of colour lack empathy for themselves, and many allies have empathy, but do not take that next step to radical empathy that would lead to the actions needed to create change.
Terri E. Givens is a Professor of Political Science at McGill University. She was formerly based at the University of Texas at Austin and is the founder of the Center for Higher Education Leadership. She is the author of books and articles on immigration policy, antidiscrimination politics and comparative race politics.
