This super-interesting video is based on Jeremy Rifkin's book The Empathetic Civilization. The basic argument is that humans are hardwired to experience empathy, and that this emotion has evolved to include more and more "others"-- and that there is no reason we can't continue expanding our concept of those who deserve empathy to all of humanity, and beyond. Plus, the animation is really awesome.
