The anniversary of Roe v. Wade—January 22—is four short months away, and we’re already making plans. Note that the 2017 March for Life in Washington, D.C., will be delayed due to the presidential inauguration, but the Walk for Life West Coast will take place on the usual date. That means that the observance will take […]
Kamaria and Ryann; photo via Public Justice Kamaria Downs, the heroine of today’s blog, is a graduate of Claflin University… despite Claflin’s outrageous attempt to derail her senior year: In 2015, when officials at Claflin University in South Carolina learned senior honors student Kamaria Downs was pregnant, they kicked her out of the dorms and […]
The Women in Secularism conference will be held in Arlington, VA this weekend, from Friday, September 23 through Sunday, September 25.

Cognitive dissonance is defined as “the mental stress or discomfort experienced by an individual who holds two or more contradictory beliefs, ideas, or values at the same time; performs an action that is contradictory to one […]
The internet is a wonderful thing. Obviously. How did we ever live without facebook, YouTube, and cat memes? But the internet has also made it easy for racist, fascist types to find each other and spew venom. You may have heard Hillary Clinton’s speech about the “alt Right” recently.
