Mailbag Installment 1: Moral Witness & Collective Obedience

In this first listener-driven episode, I turn the conversation inward - answering a question from Tanya W (Portland, OR) about what it means to be a moral witness in a world that often rewards unseeing obedience. We invoke Hannah Arendt’s “banality of evil”, explore the tension between witnessing and complicity, and ask: how do we interrupt history’s momentum? Join me as we reflect on conscience, attention, and the subtle art of refusing sleep in the face of cruelty.
