You might have noticed the New York Times's page A1 story "More Atheists Shout It From the Rooftops" this past April. The story featured the campaign of an organization called the United Coalition of Reason, to put up Humanist-themed billboards and other major ad campaigns across the US in order to help build cooperation and community among the tens of millions of nonreligious Americans.
The Humanist Chaplaincy at Harvard invites all local non-theist and Humanist individuals and organizations to celebrate the UnitedCOR's Boston campaign launch. There will even be a tie-in to Greg Epstein's book: beginning on Monday Oct. 26, look for "Good Without God" ads on the red and green lines of the MBTA, in a month-long effort predicted to draw more than 9 million total views!
On Nov. 2 HCH will honor the UnitedCoR for their historic 25-city coalition-building campaign, by making them the 2009 "Harvard Humanists of the Year". UnitedCoR director Fred Edwords and colleagues will deliver our 17th annual Alexander Lincoln Memorial Lecture, and talk about the responses they are receiving to the "Good Without God" campaigns launching from New York City mass transit to the highways of Los Angeles, from Houston, Dallas, and Tulsa to Palo Alto and Portland, and much more!
The launch event will take place at 7:30 to 9:30 pm at the Harvard Science Center, Hall D. All local leaders and groups are encouraged to come with their literature, and to share in a great networking opportunity. There will be free Good Without God bracelets and free champagne for the first 100 guests to arrive!
