Sooner or later, every person gets stuck. Often in small ways, but sometimes in big ways. In front of the whole world. We fall from grace. Can we find each other (again) and lend a helping hand? Can we continue to see the human being in the other person?

Programme

February 25: Media Ombudswoman Margo Smit
Music by singer-songwriter Steven Paas

March 25: Hosted by the APCH with a special guest: A judge from the International Criminal Court

April 22: Bram Bakker, former psychiatrist, writer, and columnist.
Music by pianist Pascal van den Dool

The media is an environment where people stumble before the eyes of the world. But is it also a merciless environment? Does the media contribute to a culture of canceling? Led by Jonathan van der Geer, we delve deeply into these questions. There will be music by pianist Pascal van den Dool. We hope to welcome you!

In a series of three evenings, the LUX Academy reflects on the theme Fallen, canceled, mercy? We will engage in conversation with interpreters from very diverse worlds, such as media, science, church, and politics. Beyond considering others, we will also look at ourselves. How do we feel about our fellow human beings who have reached an impasse? And where did we ourselves reach an impasse? What did we do then? Why do we need mercy when looking at others and ourselves? We focus on the fall, the subsequent period of darkness, and recovery.
