One recent case involves a seven-year-old boy separated from his asylum-seeking mother at the San Ysidro Port of Entry.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>President Trump said he was \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2018/06/20/621798823/speaker-ryan-plans-immigration-votes-amid-doubts-that-bills-can-pas\">stopping the widely condemned family separation policy\u003c/a> this June, but neither the language in his executive order nor the language in a San Diego federal \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2018/06/27/623788648/federal-judge-in-san-diego-bars-migrant-family-separations\">judge's ruling\u003c/a> against separations provide protection for unique instances when asylum-seekers enter with U.S.-citizen children. Both orders seek to maintain family unity when both the parents and the children are foreign nationals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>U.S. Customs and Border Protection provided this statement in response to a KPBS inquiry:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>If an inadmissible foreign national arrives with a United States citizen minor, and the foreign national will be detained for an immigration violation, they may be separated as CBP and ICE are unable to detain United States citizens in these instances. CBP officials make every attempt to turn U.S. citizen minors over to the custody of a family member. At times, we use Child Welfare Services to assist with an appropriate placement.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>The Department of Homeland Security said it still has a policy of separating \"for the best interest of the child, for health or medical reasons, or for criminal background of the adult,\" according to spokeswoman Katie Waldman.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The legal services organization \u003ca href=\"https://alotrolado.org/\">Al Otro Lado\u003c/a> said it's not unusual for asylum-seeking adults to have U.S.-citizen children after having lived some time in the U.S. For every 20 asylum-seekers who present themselves at ports of entry, at least one has a U.S.-citizen child with them, said Al Otro Lado attorney Erika Pinheiro.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"U.S.-citizen children come with asylum-seeking parents every single day to the border,\" Pinheiro said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She said family separations that involve U.S.-citizen children are \"worse\" than separations that involve only foreign nationals. \u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"alignright\">\n\u003ch3>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/tag/family-separation\">Full Coverage: Family Separation at the Border\u003c/a>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cfigure>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/tag/family-separation\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/MigrantKidSleeping-1180x797.jpg\" alt=\"\">\u003c/a>\u003c/figure>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>Unlike foreign national minors who go into the custody of the Office of Refugee Resettlement, U.S.-citizen children go into foster care unless Child Welfare Services can find them relatives in the U.S. who can take them in.

These letters are required for priests who want to work in a diocese other than their home diocese, under the Catholic Church’s national protocols for protecting minors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Helen Osman, a spokeswoman for the Oakland diocese, confirmed to KQED that Foley celebrated the sacraments at St. Isidore this year, possibly as recently as this month.

San Damiano is a sprawling Franciscan retreat on a hill overlooking Danville, with gardens, guest rooms and a large main building with a gift shop.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The event was billed as a silent weekend retreat, called “The Beatitudes: Jesus’ 8-Step Program for Happiness.” Forty-four adults attended, including 34 women, 10 men and no children, according to retreat director, Peter Wise.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Wise told KQED that no research was done on Foley prior to the retreat, “because of his reputation as (a) well-respected teacher and presenter.” Wise wrote in an email that, “the understanding here was that Fr. Foley was in good standing and able to work in this diocese.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To date, the Oakland diocese is “not aware of any children or vulnerable adults being harmed in any way by Father Foley,” Bishop Barber wrote in his letter to St. Isidore parishioners. This was confirmed to KQED more recently by the Oakland diocese spokeswoman Helen Osman. However, Osman said it would be a “reasonable assumption” that children had been around Foley while he was officiating in the parish. The diocese has hired an outside firm to conduct the investigation, she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Barber urged anyone with allegations or information about sexual misconduct involving Foley to contact police.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kevin Eckery, spokesman for the San Diego diocese, confirmed that Foley remains attached to the diocese there, and is technically still a priest. But, he said the San Diego diocese removed Foley’s “faculties” in 2015, stripping him of the authority to work as a priest, to conduct mass, or to perform other sacraments. In addition, Foley is not supposed to wear a priest’s collar or refer to himself as “Father Foley.” While Foley has not been laicized, or “defrocked,” Eckery said that could not be ruled out in the future.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In recent email and text correspondence, Foley told KQED the allegations are “false” and said he has not ministered to children since 1995.\u003c/p>\n\n",

These letters are required for priests who want to work in a diocese other than their home diocese, under the Catholic Church’s national protocols for protecting minors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Helen Osman, a spokeswoman for the Oakland diocese, confirmed to KQED that Foley celebrated the sacraments at St. Isidore this year, possibly as recently as this month. She said the diocese office can find no record of a letter of suitability for him in its files.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"alignright\">\n\u003ch3>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11693177/san-diego-diocese-kept-writing-letters-of-recommendation-for-priest-accused-of-abuse\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">San Diego Diocese Kept Writing Letters of Recommendation for Priest Accused of Abuse\u003c/a>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cfigure>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11693177/san-diego-diocese-kept-writing-letters-of-recommendation-for-priest-accused-of-abuse\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003cimg decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/AbuseProtestSanDiego-1180x787.jpg\" alt=\"\">\u003c/a>\u003c/figure>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>In addition, Foley was the featured speaker at \u003ca href=\"https://sandamiano.org\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">San Damiano Retreat\u003c/a> July 27-29. San Damiano is a sprawling Franciscan retreat on a hill overlooking Danville, with gardens, guest rooms and a large main building with a gift shop.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The event was billed as a silent weekend retreat, called “The Beatitudes: Jesus’ 8-Step Program for Happiness.” Forty-four adults attended, including 34 women, 10 men and no children, according to retreat director, Peter Wise.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Wise told KQED that no research was done on Foley prior to the retreat, “because of his reputation as (a) well-respected teacher and presenter.” Wise wrote in an email that, “the understanding here was that Fr. Foley was in good standing and able to work in this diocese.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To date, the Oakland diocese is “not aware of any children or vulnerable adults being harmed in any way by Father Foley,” Bishop Barber wrote in his letter to St. Isidore parishioners. This was confirmed to KQED more recently by the Oakland diocese spokeswoman Helen Osman. However, Osman said it would be a “reasonable assumption” that children had been around Foley while he was officiating in the parish. The diocese has hired an outside firm to conduct the investigation, she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Barber urged anyone with allegations or information about sexual misconduct involving Foley to contact police.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kevin Eckery, spokesman for the San Diego diocese, confirmed that Foley remains attached to the diocese there, and is technically still a priest. But, he said the San Diego diocese removed Foley’s “faculties” in 2015, stripping him of the authority to work as a priest, to conduct mass, or to perform other sacraments. In addition, Foley is not supposed to wear a priest’s collar or refer to himself as “Father Foley.” While Foley has not been laicized, or “defrocked,” Eckery said that could not be ruled out in the future.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In recent email and text correspondence, Foley told KQED the allegations are “false” and said he has not ministered to children since 1995.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

The models were meant to inform future wall designs, combining different features of the prototypes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The heavily redacted government documents reveal every mock-up was deemed vulnerable to at least one breaching technique. The report, obtained by KPBS through a Freedom of Information Act request filed in January, shows the final results of tactical teams trying to breach or scale the prototypes and mock-ups of the wall. During testing, the teams who observed the damage caused by one breaching technique decided to postpone it on other mock-ups. The technique’s nature was redacted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The (redacted) breaching technique was rescheduled to be last breaching technique on each mock-up, since the technique had the potential to impact the structural integrity of the entire mock-up,” the \u003ca href=\"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/4891728-Border-Wall-Mock-Up-and-Prototype-Test-Final.html#document/p26/a454445\">report\u003c/a> states.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Engineers interviewed by KPBS said these sections of the report show that the mock-ups were at risk of collapsing due to the redacted breaching technique.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It wasn’t intended on their part, but when they ran this test, they must have realized it was causing some kind of major damage to the mock-ups,” said Robert K. Dowell, associate professor of structural engineering at San Diego State University’s Department of Civil, Construction and Environmental Engineering. “And they put it at the end because of that. They thought it was going to collapse.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As for the prototypes, it’s unclear from the document whether they can be scaled. The \u003ca href=\"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/4891728-Border-Wall-Mock-Up-and-Prototype-Test-Final.html#document/p121/a454470\">government redacted\u003c/a> almost the entire section on scaling.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meanwhile, the report provides no evidence that the government tested how well the barriers resist the creation of tunnels beneath them. Resistance to tunneling was among the \u003ca href=\"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/4895857-SOLICITATION-OFFER-AND-AWARD.html#document/p62/a454626\">project requirements\u003c/a>. Additionally, most of the prototypes failed to show they could be easily modified in response to different border landscapes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In response to a request for comment on the documented flaws of the barriers, U.S. Customs and Border Protection spokesman Ralph DeSio said the prototypes “were not and cannot be designed to be indestructible.” He said they were instead meant to help create barriers that would “impede or deny efforts to scale, breach, or dig under such a barrier, giving agents time to respond.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He also added that no single prototype was “the intended end result.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When Trump visited San Diego in March, he toured the prototype site as part of his campaign for still-nonexistent funds for his wall, projected to cost \u003ca href=\"https://www.kpbs.org/news/2018/jan/24/one-year-trumps-presidency-border-wall-remains-que/\">upwards of $20 billion\u003c/a>. He said his wall would stop \u003ca href=\"https://www.apnews.com/257492ff75ff43bd9c92e3152ff75d08\">99 percent of smugglers\u003c/a>, including those he described as “\u003ca href=\"https://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2018/03/13/trump_illegals_able_to_cross_border_walls_are_like_professional_mountain_climbers.html\">professional mountain climbers\u003c/a>.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The unveiling of the prototypes generated a lot of buzz. Fox News, Business Insider and the Los Angeles Times quoted unnamed officials who claimed the barriers had withstood attempts to scale and break them. Some of the headlines included these descriptions:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>– “\u003ca href=\"http://www.foxnews.com/us/2018/01/30/trump-s-border-wall-prototypes-virtually-impassable-pass-rigorous-testing.html\">Virtually Impassable\u003c/a>”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>– “\u003ca href=\"https://www.businessinsider.com/trump-border-wall-prototypes-withstood-breaching-climbing-tests-2018-2\">Nearly impossible to scale\u003c/a>”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>– “\u003ca href=\"http://www.latimes.com/local/lanow/la-me-border-wall-test-20180119-story.html\">Wall prototypes pass tests\u003c/a>”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here’s a breakdown of the actual results.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Q: Can The Barriers Be Breached?

Thirteen redacted photographs in the “Border Wall Mock-Up and Prototype Test Final Report” are labeled as “breached,” but it’s unclear how many mock-ups those photos correspond to because of the redactions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All of the prototypes were deemed vulnerable to the breaching technique that was rescheduled to be at the end of each test. Whether that technique was actually applied to the mock-ups is not evident in the documents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11693455\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/Prototypes-800x554.jpg\" alt=\"Theron Francisco, public affairs officer with the U.S. Border Patrol, stands in front of border wall prototypes in Otay Mesa.\" width=\"800\" height=\"554\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11693455\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/Prototypes-800x554.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/Prototypes-160x111.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/Prototypes-1020x706.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/Prototypes-1200x831.jpg 1200w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/Prototypes.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/Prototypes-1180x817.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/Prototypes-960x665.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/Prototypes-240x166.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/Prototypes-375x260.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/Prototypes-520x360.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Theron Francisco, public affairs officer with the U.S. Border Patrol, stands in front of border wall prototypes in Otay Mesa. \u003ccite>(Ariana Drehsler/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Another change of plans came when one of the mock-ups was so damaged by a technique that not all portions of the testing were conducted on that mock-up.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During the \u003ca href=\"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/4891728-Border-Wall-Mock-Up-and-Prototype-Test-Final.html#document/p26/a454456\">application of that breaching technique\u003c/a>, “the compromised structural integrity of (redacted) caused by the (redacted) led to unsafe conditions resulting in the technique being stopped and the (redacted) portion not executed.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The mock-ups were replicas of the \u003ca href=\"https://www.gao.gov/assets/700/693488.pdf\">lowest 10 feet\u003c/a> of each prototype.

These tunnels, used for drug and human smuggling, tend to concentrate in areas with strong and layered fencing. In San Diego, which has one of the most fortified borders with Mexico, more than 60 tunnels have been found since fencing construction began.

They thought it was going to collapse.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As for the prototypes, it’s unclear from the document whether they can be scaled.

"content": "\u003cp>[dropcap]L[/dropcap]ast year, I interviewed a woman named Cheryl Taylor. The 63-year-old wore pink bunny ears on top of her head. She was living on a San Diego sidewalk after being evicted from her home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She said the people living in the luxury high-rise across the street didn’t know her story. They’d never asked.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They just yelled, “Bum get out of here, you’re just dirty trash, you’re not welcome here,” according to Taylor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then this spring \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11660885/having-a-job-or-two-or-three-doesnt-mean-you-can-afford-a-place-to-live-in-california\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">I interviewed Chad Bordes\u003c/a>. He was working 16-hour days as a driver for Uber and Lyft and selling cars online. He was also living in his car.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“How did we get here?” he asked. “How did we get to a point where we devalue human life to where it’s OK if we step over homeless people, or you’re sleeping in your car, it doesn’t matter.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>His words stuck.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I know a lot of Californians worry about homeless people in their neighborhoods creating health risks, committing crimes and driving down property values. I also know countless people in the state toil endlessly to help the homeless — shelter workers, advocates, police officers, paramedics, regular citizens and politicians. And I know many people living on California’s streets feel hurt, dejected, invisible and excluded by the rest of society.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This interplay got me curious about our collective capacity for empathy. I looked to science for some answers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Empathy is probably as native as any other sensory modality, hearing or vision or taste,” said William Mobley, an M.D. and associate dean for Neurosciences Initiatives at UC San Diego.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He explained empathy is feeling another person’s experience. Compassion is acting on that knowledge.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We learned how to work within our tribe by being able to read each other’s feelings,” Mobley said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11693306\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-11693306\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/CherylTaylor-800x624.jpg\" alt=\"Cheryl Taylor talks about what it’s like to live on the streets of San Diego.\" width=\"800\" height=\"624\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/CherylTaylor.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/CherylTaylor-160x125.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/CherylTaylor-240x187.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/CherylTaylor-375x293.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/CherylTaylor-520x406.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Cheryl Taylor talks about what it’s like to live on the streets of San Diego. \u003ccite>(KATIE SCHOOLOV/KPBS)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Empathy can be seen on brain imaging.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If you look at the parts of the brain that are activated when we feel pain or internal distress or sadness or even surprise, the same regions in the brain are also activated, at least they overlap, with regions that are activated when we see pain or surprise in another,” Mobley said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I told him about Kaye, who wanted only her first name used. She’s an elderly woman I recently met in Santa Monica. She’d been living on a $1,000 Social Security check each month. When the city started giving her a little money to cover her rent, she was overjoyed because the extra money meant she could help the homeless man across the street.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I am able to give $10 away,” Kaye said. “That’s just amazing.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That’s empathy,” Mobley said. “It’s biblical, right? The woman who had nothing gave it all away.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mobley said research shows, in fact, that people’s experiences can foster empathy and so can the way we talk about people who are struggling.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That point reminded me of Riverside Mayor Rusty Bailey. He refuses to call people living on his city’s streets homeless.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They’re our neighbors,” Bailey said. “They already live here. They’re our neighbors without homes.”\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignright\">'Without empathy, the human species will not survive.'\u003ccite>Dilip Jeste, UC San Diego neuropsychiatrist\u003c/cite>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>Mobley said Bailey’s description is a perfect example of the potential to change mindsets by changing the language.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Your brain is saying, ‘Wait a minute, these are our friends,’ ” Mobley said. “Well, that means they’re people that we like, that we support. We want to be a part of what’s good for them.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And that kind of thinking — practiced enough — can spark a mental chain reaction.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Empathy changes everything,” Mobley said. “It absolutely prevents me from ignoring or diminishing the value of another human being. And if everybody is of immense value, how can I ignore anybody and suffering? And if I can’t ignore anybody and suffering, well then, the whole world changes.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I asked Mobley Chad Bordes’ question: Why does it seem that so many folks lack empathy?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It may just be that we’re so darn busy,” Mobley said. “We’re beset by other stresses. It’s hard for us to really be the empathic people that we want to be and maybe even aspire to be. Empathy is challenged by pressure. It’s much easier for me to make myself available to listen to somebody with an issue or problem if my schedule isn’t burdened by 25 other things.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Emiliana Simon-Thomas, science director of the Greater Good Science Center at UC Berkeley, said data suggest that our “empathic muscle” weakens from the time we’re born.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"alignright\">\n\u003ch3>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11689282/californians-try-to-avoid-homelessness-by-short-circuiting-eviction\">Californians Try to Avoid Homelessness by Short-Circuiting Eviction\u003c/a>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cfigure>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11689282/californians-try-to-avoid-homelessness-by-short-circuiting-eviction\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/08/IMG_1483-1000x750.jpg\" alt=\"\">\u003c/a>\u003c/figure>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>“There are certain things about modern human experiences that incentivize a weaker variety of empathy,” Simon-Thomas said. “There’s good evidence that, in fact, when people living in these highly complex, incredibly populated communities that we live in now, it puts certain challenges on our innate capacity for empathy.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Researchers are looking at whether empathy can be inspired.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A number of studies have shown meditation can encourage it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Practices like Loving Kindness Meditation peel back some of the learned habits that we may have developed that suppress our innate empathic capacities,” Simon-Thomas said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Talking about empathy can awaken it, too.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Empathy is a personality trait, similar to optimism and resilience,” said UC San Diego geriatric neuropsychiatrist Dilip Jeste. “And all of these traits are partly genetic, only 35 to 50 percent, which means that 50 to 65 percent is not genetic, which means it can be modified, which means it can be improved.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He said even keeping a gratitude diary can stimulate empathy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Across the board, as people’s lives get more stressful, corporate leaders, educators and health care professionals are using training programs focused on building empathy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We need it for our survival,” Jeste said. “Without empathy, the human species will not survive.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It is a lesson many people, especially homeless people, have learned for themselves.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Remember the woman with the bunny ears, Cheryl Taylor, whose address was San Diego’s streets?

I also know countless people in the state toil endlessly to help the homeless — shelter workers, advocates, police officers, paramedics, regular citizens and politicians. And I know many people living on California’s streets feel hurt, dejected, invisible and excluded by the rest of society.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This interplay got me curious about our collective capacity for empathy. I looked to science for some answers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Empathy is probably as native as any other sensory modality, hearing or vision or taste,” said William Mobley, an M.D. and associate dean for Neurosciences Initiatives at UC San Diego.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He explained empathy is feeling another person’s experience. Compassion is acting on that knowledge.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We learned how to work within our tribe by being able to read each other’s feelings,” Mobley said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11693306\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-11693306\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/CherylTaylor-800x624.jpg\" alt=\"Cheryl Taylor talks about what it’s like to live on the streets of San Diego.\" width=\"800\" height=\"624\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/CherylTaylor.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/CherylTaylor-160x125.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/CherylTaylor-240x187.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/CherylTaylor-375x293.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/CherylTaylor-520x406.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Cheryl Taylor talks about what it’s like to live on the streets of San Diego. \u003ccite>(KATIE SCHOOLOV/KPBS)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Empathy can be seen on brain imaging.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If you look at the parts of the brain that are activated when we feel pain or internal distress or sadness or even surprise, the same regions in the brain are also activated, at least they overlap, with regions that are activated when we see pain or surprise in another,” Mobley said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I told him about Kaye, who wanted only her first name used. She’s an elderly woman I recently met in Santa Monica. She’d been living on a $1,000 Social Security check each month. When the city started giving her a little money to cover her rent, she was overjoyed because the extra money meant she could help the homeless man across the street.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I am able to give $10 away,” Kaye said. “That’s just amazing.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That’s empathy,” Mobley said. “It’s biblical, right? The woman who had nothing gave it all away.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mobley said research shows, in fact, that people’s experiences can foster empathy and so can the way we talk about people who are struggling.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That point reminded me of Riverside Mayor Rusty Bailey. He refuses to call people living on his city’s streets homeless.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They’re our neighbors,” Bailey said. “They already live here. They’re our neighbors without homes.”\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignright\">'Without empathy, the human species will not survive.'\u003ccite>Dilip Jeste, UC San Diego neuropsychiatrist\u003c/cite>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>Mobley said Bailey’s description is a perfect example of the potential to change mindsets by changing the language.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Your brain is saying, ‘Wait a minute, these are our friends,’ ” Mobley said. “Well, that means they’re people that we like, that we support. We want to be a part of what’s good for them.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And that kind of thinking — practiced enough — can spark a mental chain reaction.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Empathy changes everything,” Mobley said. “It absolutely prevents me from ignoring or diminishing the value of another human being. And if everybody is of immense value, how can I ignore anybody and suffering? And if I can’t ignore anybody and suffering, well then, the whole world changes.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I asked Mobley Chad Bordes’ question: Why does it seem that so many folks lack empathy?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It may just be that we’re so darn busy,” Mobley said. “We’re beset by other stresses. It’s hard for us to really be the empathic people that we want to be and maybe even aspire to be. Empathy is challenged by pressure. It’s much easier for me to make myself available to listen to somebody with an issue or problem if my schedule isn’t burdened by 25 other things.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Emiliana Simon-Thomas, science director of the Greater Good Science Center at UC Berkeley, said data suggest that our “empathic muscle” weakens from the time we’re born.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"alignright\">\n\u003ch3>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11689282/californians-try-to-avoid-homelessness-by-short-circuiting-eviction\">Californians Try to Avoid Homelessness by Short-Circuiting Eviction\u003c/a>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cfigure>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11689282/californians-try-to-avoid-homelessness-by-short-circuiting-eviction\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/08/IMG_1483-1000x750.jpg\" alt=\"\">\u003c/a>\u003c/figure>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>“There are certain things about modern human experiences that incentivize a weaker variety of empathy,” Simon-Thomas said. “There’s good evidence that, in fact, when people living in these highly complex, incredibly populated communities that we live in now, it puts certain challenges on our innate capacity for empathy.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Researchers are looking at whether empathy can be inspired.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A number of studies have shown meditation can encourage it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Practices like Loving Kindness Meditation peel back some of the learned habits that we may have developed that suppress our innate empathic capacities,” Simon-Thomas said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Talking about empathy can awaken it, too.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Empathy is a personality trait, similar to optimism and resilience,” said UC San Diego geriatric neuropsychiatrist Dilip Jeste. “And all of these traits are partly genetic, only 35 to 50 percent, which means that 50 to 65 percent is not genetic, which means it can be modified, which means it can be improved.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He said even keeping a gratitude diary can stimulate empathy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Across the board, as people’s lives get more stressful, corporate leaders, educators and health care professionals are using training programs focused on building empathy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We need it for our survival,” Jeste said. “Without empathy, the human species will not survive.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It is a lesson many people, especially homeless people, have learned for themselves.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Remember the woman with the bunny ears, Cheryl Taylor, whose address was San Diego’s streets?

"content": "\u003cp>SAN DIEGO — Republican Rep. Duncan Hunter has suggested that his wife was to blame for the alleged misuse of campaign funds after the couple was indicted for using up to $250,000 for trips, clothing purchases and school tuition.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In an interview Thursday with Fox News' Martha MacCallum after the couple \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11688455/rep-duncan-hunter-wife-plead-not-guilty-to-campaign-corruption-charges\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">pleaded not guilty\u003c/a> to illegally using the campaign account for personal expenses, the San Diego congressman said his campaign made mistakes and that his wife was his campaign manager.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"So whatever she did, that will be looked at, too, I'm sure,\" Hunter said. \"But I didn't do it. I didn't spend any money illegally, I did not use campaign money.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hunter and his wife, Margaret, entered federal court in San Diego separately with their own attorneys to enter their pleas -- and both also left separately. Margaret Hunter's lawyer, Thomas McNamara, did not immediately respond to phone and email messages Friday seeking comment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the interview, Hunter said he gave his wife power of attorney when he deployed as a Marine to Iraq in 2003 and that she has handled his finances throughout his five terms in office.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2017, when reports emerged that Hunter was being investigated for misuse of campaign money, he said that his campaign would stop paying his wife. A year earlier he told the San Diego Union-Tribune that he and his wife held the only campaign credit cards and that he would be the only cardholder going forward.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He told Fox News that he also paid back $60,000 to his campaign and that the allegations are \"pure politics\" ahead of the November election.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"My campaign did make mistakes,\" Hunter told the network. \"There was money spent on things, not by me but by the campaign, and I paid that back before my last election.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hunter defended some of the spending, saying trips paid for with campaign funds were for fundraising.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"alignright\">\n\u003ch3>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11688455/rep-duncan-hunter-wife-plead-not-guilty-to-campaign-corruption-charges\">Rep.

I didn't spend any money illegally, I did not use campaign money.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hunter and his wife, Margaret, entered federal court in San Diego separately with their own attorneys to enter their pleas -- and both also left separately. Margaret Hunter's lawyer, Thomas McNamara, did not immediately respond to phone and email messages Friday seeking comment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the interview, Hunter said he gave his wife power of attorney when he deployed as a Marine to Iraq in 2003 and that she has handled his finances throughout his five terms in office.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Spanning media far beyond comics, the convention is a place for movies and tv shows to tease fans with new trailers and panels. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>More than 100,000 were expected to converge on the convention, which ran from July 19 through 22. Teaser images and clips were seen at the panels for “Wonder Woman 1984,” “Fantastic Beasts” and more, while shows like “Doctor Who” and “Riverdale” also gave fans much to look forward to in coming seasons. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At this con, fans aren’t just attendees, they’re part of the entertainment. From group costumes that take months of coordination, to custom-made ones that require some engineering skills, the pop-culture inspired outfits are a sight to behold. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here are some of the highlights from this year’s con.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11681937\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 640px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/GettyImages-1002925486-1020x680.jpg\" alt=\" Cosplayers dressed as Ellie and Carl from the film 'Up' outside San Diego Comic-Con.\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" class=\"size-large wp-image-11681937\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Cosplayers dressed as Ellie and Carl from the film ‘Up’ outside San Diego Comic-Con. \u003ccite>(Mario Tama/Getty Images)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11681938\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 640px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/GettyImages-1002827660-1020x661.jpg\" alt=\"Cosplayers pose while dressed as the White Queen and Queen of Hearts outside Comic-Con on July 20, 2018 at the San Diego Convention Center.\" width=\"640\" height=\"415\" class=\"size-large wp-image-11681938\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Cosplayers strike a pose while dressed as the White Queen and Queen of Hearts outside Comic-Con on July 20, 2018 at the San Diego Convention Center. \u003ccite>(Mario Tama/Getty Images)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11681934\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 640px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/GettyImages-1002266824-1020x680.jpg\" alt=\"A boy smiles after posing with a cosplayer dressed as Black Panther outside San Diego Comic-Con on July 19, 2018 in San Diego, California.\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" class=\"size-large wp-image-11681934\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A boy smiles after posing with a cosplayer dressed as Black Panther.
