Debating at the Holocaust Museum of Houston


Kathryn Tucker, the lawyer for Compassion and Choices (formerly Hemlock Society) and I will debate assisted suicide (which she insists on calling “aid in dying”) Tuesday night at the Holocaust Museum of Houston. Our presentations are part of a much larger series entitled “Medical Ethics and the Holocaust: How Healing Becomes Killing—Eugenics, Euthanasia and Extermination.”

Apparently, the event can be viewed live over the Internet from this page at the Museum site. We begin at 6:00PM Central Time. I speak first for 30 minutes. Tucker goes second. And then we take questions from the audience.

Tucker is one of the most able pro assisted- suicide advocates around. It should make for an interesting night.
