Facing The Empathy Deficit | Ari Saperstein | TEDxClaremontColleges

"We're half as empathetic as the generation before us... and I don’t know if we care." That’s the issue Ari Saperstein explores in his talk about the “empathy deficit.” Saperstein examines the impact of social media and technology on emotional intelligence and human behavior. In telling his own story about hurt and forgiveness that spans a decade, he illustrates the importance of empathy.
