This is going to sound counterintuitive, and I think Professor Davies said this earlier, but these are emotional things. We're not going to be able to necessarily go and tell a person facts and figures to sway them. The answer is to go in through the heart. At the core of Life After Hate's philosophy is the use of compassion.
I believe that the level to which we dehumanize other human beings is a mirror reflection of our own internal disconnection and dehumanization, and that the answer when we work with these people is to rehumanize them. How do we rehumanize them? We rehumanize them through compassion. When we're compassionate with someone, we hold a mirror up and allow them to see their own humanity reflected back at them when they can't see it on their own.
