In this special episode of The American Muslim Podcast, Imam Tariq I. El-Amin shares a spoken essay reflecting on power, impunity, and moral injury.
Drawing on historical memory, contemporary events, and ethical reflection, The Cost of Impunity explores how unaccountable state violence harms not only those subjected to it, but also those authorized to carry it out. The essay examines the denial of protection, the psychological consequences of normalized violence, and the quiet damage that spreads through families, institutions, and society when power operates without restraint.
This episode invites listeners to consider a difficult but necessary question: what happens when no one feels safe, and what kind of people do we become under those conditions?
