Our readingWhat is a korrent?
Drawn from what Desmond Tutu said
On the topicWhat does compassion ask of us?under our view: Compassion is owed to everyone, not only to your own group
In dehumanizing others, they are themselves dehumanized. Perhaps oppression dehumanizes the oppressor as much as, if not more than, the oppressed. They need each other to become truly free, to become human. We can be human only in fellowship, in community, in koinonia, in peace.
