Rita Marker, the head of the International Task Force on Euthanasia and Assisted Suicide was my mentor, after dragging me kicking and screaming getting into this line of work. Having read her wonderful Deadly Compassion, I was shocked to my shoes, and offered to give ten percent of my time to the work fighting assisted suicide. Well, you all know how that story went.
I consider Rita to be one of the giants. In the eighties, when nobody else was paying attention, she saws the storm clouds looming and got to work. Without her prodigious efforts, I am convinced that euthanasia and assisted suicide would have spread far and wide by now.
Rita’s comments are always worth attending. Here is a short Q and A interview with her that I thought y’all might enjoy. And, heeere’s Rita.
