I am a little disappointed in the author of the first link in that she engages in some of the very behaviors she is cautioning people against (us vs. them thinking, and demonizing the "other"), with her use of the term "into-the-sea framing". That seems a bit counter-productive to me for bringing about the state of empathy for the other that she seems to want to promote. But maybe she has biases of her own that she is not aware of.
