Bangladeshi blogger Bonya Ahmed, widow of Mukto-Mona founder Avijit Roy, came to London by invitation of the British Humanist Association to give a seminal lecture on the daily threat faced by Bangladeshi humanist bloggers and others like them around the world. Four months after she survived the attack which killed her husband in February 2015, Bonya summons great courage and strength to present an inspirational account of her life with Avijit why freedom of expression and Humanism are causes worth fighting for.
The lecture was chaired by Professor Jim Al-Khalili, BHA President and himself a former Voltaire Lecturer. Previous Voltaire Lecturers have included Professor Sir David King, Professor Anthony Grayling, Professor Steven Pinker, Professor Brian Cox, Professor Richard Dawkins, Baroness Wootton, Professor Robert Hinde, Kenan Malik, Natalie Haynes, Lord Taverne, and Sir Ludovic Kennedy. It is always chaired by the President of the BHA.
