How do we show mercy in the digital age when we are so separated from each other and only interact with many people over social media? Dr Brent Robbins and I talk about the history of the psychological study of mercy and we talk about how we can show mercy to others, especially when how they see the seem to be diametrically opposed to our own views. Showing mercy in the digital age can be very difficult, how can we do it?

Dr Brent Robbins works at Park Place University.
