Frater N.D.N.S.N: Do not go gentle: Euthanasia, Eugenics & LIBER OZ

This lecture explores the policy and practical implications of international euthanasia law from a Thelemic point of view. In order to inform the medical and sociopolitical context euthanasia laws operate in, we'll first examine the history of eugenics, including scientific racism, various models of disability, involuntary sterilisation, and extermination. We'll then explore how euthanasia laws operate in Europe and the Americas as well as who medicine prioritises in the global Covid-19 pandemic, in order to question how best to fulfil Liber OZ in a non-Thelemic society.
