Episode Notes

After the deaths of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, and Ahmaud Arbery, many of us were left wondering how people can be treated as less than human. And how do we explain atrocities like the Holocaust and the Rwandan genocide? Today, Chris had the opportunity to sit down with professor and philosopher David Livingstone Smith to discuss his book On Inhumanity: Dehumanization and How to Resist It.
