The Empathy Project: Film and Conversation with Bel Jacobs

Watch a documentary about compassion for animals, then join a conversation with project founder Bel Jacobs.

Why it caught our eye

The screening connects the stories in the film with a chance to ask its founder about the choices and experiences behind the project.

About this experience

How does concern for animals become a reason to act? Quaker Vegan Witness hosts an online screening of The Empathy Project, a 30-minute documentary exploring personal journeys into animal advocacy. Founder Bel Jacobs joins the gathering to talk about the project and its inspiration.

What you can expect

Watch the film, hear from Bel Jacobs and bring questions to an open discussion. The evening also leaves space for personal reflection and conversation about compassion and change. You do not need to be a Quaker to attend.

Good to know before you go

For ages 16 and over. The film discusses harm to animals but contains no images of animal harm. Attendance is free; the Zoom link arrives with your ticket confirmation email. Check your spam or junk folder.
