The Wisdom of Sociology
Completion requirements
In this video, Sam Richards explains how he introduces his students to the sociological perspective. This practice begins with empathy – where you can sympathize with and understand another person's perspective by "putting yourself in their shoes". Richards uses a radical exercise to help individuals pursue empathy through perspective-taking. Challenge yourself to view the world from someone else's perspective. Try putting yourself into the shoes of someone who has a different cultural or ethnic background.
