Excerpts

Writings of Healing and Resistance: Empathy and the Imagination-Intellect is a multi-authored, interdisciplinary journey. It continues the work started in Public Education and the Imagination-Intellect (Peter Lang, 2003) by extending the importance of empathy in developing an action-based social consciousness. It discusses how Weems has been exploring empathy with her students as well as exemplars from their work. Weems is not arguing for one way of pursuing an empathy connected to mind, body and spirit. She acknowledges that just as artists work in various mediums, each with their own process for sharing how they think and feel about a particular topic or moment, each individual may get to the same place: A deep, spiritual, close identification with the experiences of the other in a way that works for them. Writings of Healing and Resistance encompasses a variety of forms: autoethnography, ethnodrama, poetic inquiry, and critical essay, as well as scholars' work in a number of disciplines including Communications, Cultural Studies, Sociology, Anthropology, Educational Leadership, African American Studies and Cultural Foundations.
