#Empathy seems to be in short supply nowadays. As such, it deserved all the attention it got at the recent #Humanities for Humans talk, hosted by @1014nyc.bsky.social in New York. 1/3

Last week, 1014 & @degruyterbrill.bsky.social hosted Too Much Emotion or Not Enough? Empathy and the Public Sphere.
