Empathy. Being able to understand, to care about other people. What happened to it?

Let‘s call this discussion 0.5, because I‘m not sure what we can discuss from the page/page and a half that was the (edit) epigraph. If you haven‘t started yet, you are not even close to behind yet. lol It‘s literally two quotes. No worries.

I meant to post this earlier in the week, but our first “discussion” for this is tomorrow. We are just reading the epigraph, so if you don‘t have your copy yet, it‘s nothing to worry about.

Apparently Ardent‘s The Origins of Totalitarianism includes three separate sections, which have also been published separately. This tagged book is taking me much longer to read than I anticipated because of its parallels to life now.
Interestingly, our freshman World History class just finished a unit on imperialism, & Cecil Rhodes & his crass attitude towards Africa & its people are duly noted.

Our friend, Varian Fry,(The Flight Portfolio) mentioned in relation to Arendt‘s ability to leave Europe for the USA. Life‘s intersections at work.

Eichmann sounds a lit like somebody else in today‘s news, doesn‘t he? I mean, like a lot of somebodys, really.
