Back when I taught at Iliff, I used the psychological definition of evil in my classes, which can basically be summed up as "othering." Othering leads to objectification (meaning treating people like objects). That's always stuck with me and it's hard to wrestle myself out of much of the time.

I wonder what I miss when I "other" another person. I wonder what I can try to make things work differently as well.
