Why Understanding Others Is the Most Radical Act

A single photograph changed everything. When images of Alan Kurdi-a three-year-old Syrian boy whose body washed ashore on a Turkish beach-circulated globally in 2015, public opinion on the refugee crisis shifted overnight. Donations to refugee organizations surged 100-fold within days. What happened? Millions of people suddenly felt something they hadn't before. This is empathy's power-and its mystery. Why do some moments pierce our hearts while others leave us unmoved? The answer lies in understanding empathy not as a simple feeling, but as a complex social force that shapes everything from our closest relationships to our political systems. In a world fracturing along every imaginable line-race, class, politics, religion-empathy isn't just a nice idea. It's our most urgent collective task. Yet despite its importance, empathy remains profoundly misunderstood, operating on multiple levels that most people never recognize, influenced by forces from our evolutionary past to our digital present.
