On February 9th, the American Humanist Association will launch the largest direct action and mutual aid project in the history of organized humanism, designed to combat the cruelty coming from our federal government and inspire people across the country to see humanism as something to belong to, believe in, and fight for.
On February 8th, join Fish Stark, Executive Director of the American Humanist Association, for a platform that weaves together humanist history, philosophy, psychology, and humor to call us to action and lay out a path forward.
In a time of rank authoritarianism, division, and cruelty, what does humanism have to offer? What are people looking for in this movement - and how can we invite them in to build a stronger movement in service of humanist values? How has the AHA achieved tremendous growth, especially among young people, in the last year - and what lessons does this offer for all humanist communities?
