Freethought Day 2006 - Sunday October 8, 12-5 pm

Fri, 22 Sep 2006 11:49:06 -0400

You won’t want to miss this year’s Freethought Day gala on Sunday, October 8, from 12-5 pm in Old Sacramento’s Waterfront Park (Front and L Streets). The fifth anniversary of Sacramento’s annual celebration of reason, freethought, and church/state separation features a line up of top-notch speakers and entertainers.

Leading the bill is the nation’s first lobbyist for secular rights, Lori Lipman Brown. Ms. Brown serves as the Director/Lobbyist of the Secular Coalition of America, which works to “increase the visibility and respectability of nontheistic viewpoints within the larger culture and to protect and strengthen secular government as the best guarantee of freedom for all.” In addition to her lobbyist role, she is a politician, attorney, educator and activist, and served as a Nevada state senator from 1992 to 1994. Brown “directs the coalition's activities and lobby U.S. Congressional representatives on issues arising out of the inappropriate incursion of religion into civil law” and addresses the interests and concerns of America's atheists, freethinkers, humanists and other secularists. What a great opportunity to hear this national freethought hero in person, right here in Sacramento!
