The closing line of the 1895 poem, Judge Softly, by Mary T. Lathrup says, “Take the time to walk a mile in his moccasins.” This line evolved into the expression, “you can’t really understand another person’s experience until you’ve walked a mile in their shoes.” Empathy is essentially the ability to see things from another person’s perspective and imagine yourself in their place, but modern technologies are eroding our empathy. On this episode of WMD, Dr. Tamara Schwartz talks with Pastor Caleb McClure of the Gettysburg Presbyterian Church to explore the importance of empathy and how we might overcome the empathy disruptions caused by technology.
