• Dehumanization, Episode 7
    Nov 24 2025

    There is no clean ending to this subject. Dehumanization doesn’t end when the violence stops or when the headlines fade. It lingers; in memory, in habits, in language. In this Afterthought, the final reflection of Dehumanization: The First Step Toward Anything, the focus turns inward. This is not closure; it’s continuation. Because dehumanization is never fully gone, only resisted.

  • Dehumanization, Episode 6
    Nov 21 2025

    If dehumanization is the first step toward anything, rehumanization is the hardest step back. It asks more than awareness; it asks effort, imagination, and patience. In Episode 6: Rehumanization, we explore what it means to rebuild humanity once it has been stripped away. From post-conflict truth commissions to the quiet courage of listening, this episode follows the slow…

  • Dehumanization, Episode 5
    Nov 19 2025

    Dehumanization doesn’t always wear a uniform. It doesn’t always shout. Sometimes it whispers through ordinary habits; the way we speak, the way we rush, the way we stop seeing each other. In Episode 5: Everyday Dehumanization, we turn away from the grand narratives of history and look at our daily lives. How language, systems, and convenience quietly train us to see people as functions rather…

  • Dehumanization, Episode 4
    Nov 17 2025

    Violence doesn’t erupt suddenly. It grows quietly, rehearsed in language, in policy, in silence. By the time the first act occurs, the story has already been written; by all of us. In Episode 4: The Mirror of Violence, we face what happens once dehumanization reaches its final form. This episode isn’t just about the victims; it’s about the perpetrators and the societies that made their…

  • Dehumanization, Episode 3
    Nov 14 2025

    Cruelty doesn’t only speak. It organizes. It measures. It files. In Episode 3: Systems of Distance, we explore how dehumanization moves from language into structure; how bureaucracy, technology, and procedure turn moral distance into machinery. Systems don’t need hatred to function. They need compliance. A form signed, a button pressed, a policy approved; each act feels neutral…

  • Dehumanization, Episode 2
    Nov 12 2025

    Language doesn’t just describe reality; it builds it. Every metaphor, every repeated phrase shapes how we see others before we ever meet them. That’s the quiet danger of dehumanization: it begins not with violence, but with words. In Episode 2: Language as a Weapon, we explore how speech becomes the first battlefield; how metaphors smuggle in actions, how euphemisms soften cruelty…

  • Dehumanization, Episode 1
    Nov 10 2025

    Violence never begins with violence. It begins with something quieter; a pause, a joke, a label that pretends to explain a person in a single word. The Threshold marks the beginning of the journey through Dehumanization: The First Step Toward Anything. This first segment explores how cruelty begins not with hatred, but with language. With silence. With the moments that feel too ordinary to…

  • Kobayashi Maru, Episode 7
    Nov 3 2025

    Afterthought: The Voice That Carries This is the closing note of Kobayashi Maru. Not a summary. Not a celebration. Just a quiet exhale after a long, honest journey. In this final reflection, you’ll hear the voice behind the course; not as a teacher, but as a fellow traveler. Someone who has lived through the same no-win moments. Who has walked away from games he couldn’t win…
