This interactive virtual program offers a compelling antidote to our current isolation and uncertainty. Drawing from James Bowey's documentary photo exhibit, When Home Won’t Let You Stay: Stories of Refugees in America, presented at the library beginning in February, James will discuss his unique approach to storytelling as a means of awakening empathy and deepening human connection. His work uses contemporary neuroscience and social psychology research to create a “language of empathy” for considering the global refugee crisis, as well as our personal and civic responses to the challenges of Covid-19. Join this event for timely insights on how empathy can empower each of us and renew our imaginations to the possibilities of hope, justice and human connection.
