Category: Health

Description:

Jared & Tyler have a tough conversation about the shooting of Jacob Blake, Breonna Taylor, and the events in Kenosha, WI. The two discuss systemic oppression and how "well-meaning" people can be complicit in perpetuating oppressive thought viruses. Other topics discussed include the challenges of being an ally, rioting, understanding human rights violations, defunding the police, Grand Theft Auto, and The Boondocks. 

SYMPATHY = acknowledging that the other person is going through an emotional or physical struggle, supporting them and giving them comfort.

EMPATHY = something more than just this. It’s actually understanding what the other person is feeling because you’ve had a similar experience yourself or you’re able to put yourself in their shoes.
