Sunday, October 11 is Sacramento Freethought Day 2009

Sacramento’s 8th Annual Freethought Day Fair is a celebration of reason, freethought and church-state separation, featuring speakers, live music, education expo, and children’s activities. The event is an opportunity for the community to celebrate values and actions we take for granted today which were once seen as radical, and to commemorate the bold and independent thinkers who led our nation to its policy of governmental neutrality toward ultimate beliefs of citizens.

This year Freethought Day is proud to have as its featured speaker Herb Silverman, President of the Secular Coalition for America and panelist for the Washington Post’s “On Faith” online column. As a citizen of South Carolina, Herb once ran for governor as an atheist (the “candidate without a prayer"). When his application for Notary Public was denied when thousands of others were accepted, Herb took the case to court and, after 7 years, became a notary public.

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!
