Comment by Harlem Humanists on February 24, 2012 at 12:25pm: The NYC event for the Day of Solidarity for Black Non-Believers will be in Harlem. In fact the next closes promoted events are in D.C and Philadelphia. So this is serving the whole Tri-State (NY,NY & CT) area.

We're putting a special twist on our usual Mind Food + "Soul Food" combo. The details will interest you!

CFI-Harlem/Harlem Humanists will be gathering on Sunday February 26th to celebrate Day of Solidarity for Black Non-believers. This is a time to get together and enjoy bright minds and warm personalities. There's a noble story of freethought from within the African American and Pan-African tradition. This is a chance to connect with this tradition and each other. We'll begin at 1pm. The place is 583 Riverside Dr. in the "Brick Room". It's free. Just e-mail (harlem@centerforinquiry.net) or call (646-820-CFIH) for all the details." RSVP if you can.

See you there. Regardless, please share this in the next two days with all you think will be interested.

Comment by Navitta Nelson on August 4, 2011 at 9:46am: Welcome Lucas!!! There's not a lot of us in this world, but we do exist. I think more Black folks are becoming atheist/agnostic. Especially this younger generation. They are looking around saying "what has Jesus or Allah done for me?"

Comment by L.Hunter on March 18, 2011 at 9:58am: How I miss being a theist!!!! I miss how I followed after pasta' and did everything he told me to do. Maybe I should go back and experience the guilt and shame tactics for money.

Comment by Debbie Goddard on March 2, 2011 at 11:02am: Ah! Makes sense. I appreciate the clarification!

Comment by Navitta Nelson on March 2, 2011 at 11:00am: I am a member of Black Freethought. However, the creator told me that some of my topics were not atheist related. I was under the impression via his responses to me, that his forum was for atheist only related topics. So, I created this for things that we may want to discuss away from atheism. Like when I posted about can a man love 2 women at the same time. I wanted to know Black Atheists opinions on that and he said the topic didn't relate to atheism. So, to not offend him, I thought I would start a group that can discuss other things. And discuss atheism there.

Comment by Debbie Goddard on March 2, 2011 at 10:40am: There is already a pretty robust group here on Atheist Nexus called "Black Freethought" (http://www.atheistnexus.org/group/blackfreethought). It already has 360 members!
