SUMMARY:BOOK LAUNCH: Suicide by Roger Hallam
DESCRIPTION:[Eroding Ed’s note: Fuck Roger Hallam\, and boo to Housman’s for stroking his ego. We’d delete it but the event is on radar and our script will just import it again.] \nHousmans welcome Roger Hallam to discuss his essential new book: Suicide: The Political and Legal Implications of Creating Endless Mass Death. In the age of climate collapse\, telling the truth has become a criminal act. From a cell in Wayland Prison\, Roger Hallam—farmer\, researcher\, and co-founder of Just Stop Oil—delivers a searing indictment of a legal system that punishes those who resist\, while protecting those who destroy. In July 2024\, Hallam was dragged from a British courtroom for refusing to stay silent about the climate crisis. For “conspiracy to cause a public nuisance\,” he was sentenced to five years in prison—the harshest punishment for civil disobedience in the UK in modern British history. The case made front-page news and drew global outcry. \nSuicide is part memoir\, part political reckoning. Drawing on Hallam’s award-winning research and experience representing himself in four Crown Court trials\, it lays bare the moral and legal failures of a society sleepwalking into catastrophe. From climate science and the right of necessity\, to the collapse of democratic norms and the illusions of secular reason\, this is a radical call to rethink justice\, truth\, and duty in the face of extinction.
