Building all sorts of bridges in these five short minutes - across political, ideological, geographic and life divides. Vivek Patil, Stacy Snyder and Brandon Charles open their own versions of curiosity conversations in this segment on empathy and making a commitment to really listen.
"Let's have a conversation," said then County Board candidate Vivek Patil. It was more than a campaign slogan. He's made it a central part of his life and work. Through an effort they've called Building Bridges, Vivek and others have set out to listen -- really listen -- to their neighbors and people outside their "bubbles" in hopes of building a stronger community and Commonwealth. "Curiosity makes us better people," says he. "It drives us to learn, to evolve our positions, to understand the world and ... really get a sense of empathy for another human's experience.”
Bunmi Akinnusotu, producer and host of "What In The World?" - also of WERA-LP 96.7FM - explores what curiosity brings to world affairs. We ponder the power of courage in face of the unknown and why Americans seem so reluctant to learn about others. A fresh take on paying attention to the world around us. Join us next time when entrepreneur, engineer and county activist Vivek Patil talks about building bridges and bringing curiosity to community conversations.

Vivek Patil is head of outreach for the Arlington County Democratic Committee in Virginia. Vivek uses a relationship-based – or Civity-based – approach to building community. This is in contrast to how political parties generally reach out to community members. His hope is that he can bridge divides and help people on opposite sides of the political spectrum see commonality in each other and then work together to solve the pressing issues facing their communities.
