Lydia Benecke - Teufelswerk oder Hexenjagd?

In the organizer's words:

In her lecture "Devil's work or witch hunt?", she explores the background to supposedly "satanic" crimes. What is behind criminal cases that have been making international headlines for decades and are declared to be crimes committed by Satanists? Do satanic secret organizations actually victimize people and sexually abuse children as part of sinister ceremonies? Are there "ritual abuse" and other satanic crimes committed by powerful Satanist groups that have been operating a global network of horror in a kind of sinister parallel society for generations? What could media professionals learn in order to avoid spreading misinformation and prejudices among the population with their reporting?

Join us on a psychological journey through history, from "Rosemary's Baby" and the "Church of Satan" to "QAnon" and "Satanic Panic 2.0" - the revival of a moral panic that has been on the rise in Germany for several years.
