We address how to raise our own antenna to this. We also look at the kind of people we ourselves are, and discuss the fact that there are repressed aspects of ourselves that can come out unexpectedly to wound those around us.

It's insidious in its nature since it is effected in such tiny steps it's almost impossible to note. And even when noted, we don't all know it has a name. We use a narrative - a story written by me - to paint a picture.
