DESCRIPTION:This evening will address the extreme polarization highlighted in this 
 election year and help us learn ways to talk to and understand those who 
 think and feel differently than ourselves. We’ll begin with the film: 
 “Love Hate and Everything in Between.”\nEmpathy - a subject 
 increasingly tested by world events and studied by scholars - is put under 
 the microscope in this documentary. Can empathy resolve issues of 
 aggression and subjugation, where wars, politics and economic sanctions 
 have failed?  “Love Hate and Everything in Between” looks into the 
 world of neuroscience, psychology, education and technology to explore the 
 extraordinary relevance of empathy in today’s increasingly interconnected 
 world.\n\nAfter the film empathy expert Edwin Rutsch will lead us in small 
 interactive groups that will allow us to practice empathy skills and 
 experience the power of active listening. (Edwin directs the Center for 
 Building a Culture of Empathy and is founder of the International Empathy 
 Trainers Association. The center’s CultureOfEmpathy.com website is the 
 internet’s most comprehensive portal for empathy related material 
 including interviews with over 300 experts on the topic.)\n\nFor more info:
