Susannah Black Roberts will go deeper into what it means to be human, investigating practical ways in which we can preserve and cultivate our humanity in a world that threatens to make us obsolete.

Dan Hitchens will ask what the advance of assisted suicide really means. Dan will address the profound cultural shift signalled by current legislation, marking a transition from the era of Cecily Saunders and the hospice movement to a new age where death is presented as a solution to what some advocates refer to as ‘useless lives.’ Setting the contemporary debate in its historical context, Dan will prompt us to consider how we should respond to this hinge moment for British society.
