Our capacity to see one another as fellow humans, to connect across differences, is the foundation of a liberal pluralist society. Yet skeptics say that what seems like empathy often may be another form of presumption, condescension or domination. Can empathy be taught?

In Ghana, all young adults who graduate from an accredited university, college or trade school must complete one year of service in agriculture, health, education, local government or rural development.
France recently began a trial period of a new national service program that seeks to unite young French people and teach them practical skills, from first aid and rescue skills to conservation.
And in the United States, the former Democratic presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg proposed to expand voluntary public service programs, while also creating new ones focused on combating climate change, treating mental health and addiction, and providing care for older people.
Do you think all young adults should have the opportunity to participate in a public service program upon graduating high school or college, either in the military or in a civic organization? Should they be required to do so? What kind of service would they have to complete? For how long? And, would they be paid for their work?

Have you ever heard two songs that sound remarkably similar? What about watched movies or read books with similar plot points or characters? Do you think there are instances when it is O.K. for artists to borrow from each other? Should there be consequences for artists to borrow too much?

Native American names and symbols have long been used by all types of American sports teams at the professional, college and high school levels, such as the Cleveland Indians, Atlanta Braves and Washington Redskins. But facing pressure and protest, many teams are now changing their nicknames and mascots.
This Sunday, the Kansas City Chiefs will face the San Francisco 49ers for Super Bowl LIV. It is likely that at some point during the game, Chiefs fans will begin their favored cheer: the tomahawk chop.
How will you feel seeing this gesture and hearing its accompanying chant? Do you think it is a disrespectful and perpetuates negative stereotypes? Or is an acceptable way to celebrate and rally one’s beloved team?
