Atheist Activists
FFRF protests the city of Hondo, Texas, sign saying This is Gods Country. After an FFRF complaint, Ex-Muslims of America finally get their cake that was denied by a local Wegmans food store. We hear the song Salvation by Elliott Ingersoll (great grandnephew of Robert Ingersoll), and then talk with FFRFs Legal Assistant and activist Calli Miller, who has been handling state/church entanglement intake and case management for FFRFs legal department, and who is now headed for Harvard Law School..
Freethought Radio , radio from the secular point of view, broadcasts weekly and is hosted by Dan Barker and Annie Laurie Gaylor, co-presidents of the Freedom From Religion Foundation. The show offers programming for nonreligious listeners, as well as countering the religious-right domination of our public airwaves. Freethought Radio features a regular "Theocracy Alert," Dan's "Pagan Pulpit," "Freethinkers Almanac," music and interviews with authors and activists. Check out Freethought Radio's illustrious list of guests, including Richard Dawkins, Julia Sweeney, Janeane Garafalo, Ron Reagan, Betty Rollins, Christopher Hitchens, Steven Pinker, Ursula K. Le Guin and so many other fascinating freethinkers, newsmakers and thinkers.
FFRF is a non-profit, educational organization. The history of Western civilization shows us that most social and moral progress has been brought about by persons free from religion. In modern times the first to speak out for prison reform, for humane treatment of the mentally ill, for abolition of capital punishment, for women's right to vote, for death with dignity for the terminally ill, and for the right to choose contraception, sterilization and abortion have been freethinkers, just as they were the first to call for an end to slavery. The Foundation works as an umbrella for those who are free from religion and are committed to the cherished principle of separation of state and church.

I keep forgetting to listen to those podcasts. It just seems like there is never enough time, but I know it's just a matter of making the decision and sticking with it.
