In this interview segment, the host asks Phyllis to explain what she believes drives the recent surge in violence and hatred across the United States. Phyllis emphasizes that the issue is multifaceted and cannot be reduced to a single cause. She notes that different disciplines—economics, religion, sociology—would each offer distinct explanations. From her psychological standpoint, she argues that the core driver is the breakdown and devaluation of the family unit in America, asserting that society no longer esteems or cares for families, which she sees as a fundamental factor behind growing divisiveness and violence.
