I Feel Your Pain
Does one black person feel pain when another black person is shot by police ?
I would hazard to say it is quite possible! I looked for some clues about psychological group consciousness or group awareness. I believe I found a good
hypothesis on the matter at the following link that referenced a book by
Sara Ahmed entitled, The Cultural Politics of Emotion.

Students of psychology, political science, law, social policy and even elected officials my want to peruse the book, given the trying times for race relations and policing in the United States today .
