Who speaks for whom? And who do we (or should we) exclude from public discourse? A very timely event not to be missed - happening this WEDNESDAY.

Information on how to take part is in the comments.

You can listen to me speak about „Selbstdenken“ (self thinking) today - a term Hannah Arendt borrowed from Lessing. With this term, both did not mean to signify a retreat into an isolated “self“, but rather a “thinking with others“.
One can learn by oneself - but one cannot think alone! #dgska2025
