MS - Elizabeth Minnich

We are re-sharing one of our most noteworthy Morning Show interviews from 2025.  Elizabeth Minnich discusses her deeply thought-provoking book "The Evil of Banality:  On the Life and Death Importance of Thinking."    The title is a variant on a phrase coined by Hannah Arendt several decades ago - "The banality of evil" - which caused some controversy at the time.  Minnich was working for Arendt at the time.   Minnich's book is a fresh exploration of the nature of evil- and of the different ways in which it can manifest itself in our lives and in our world.
