Freethinker but haven't joined the American Humanist Association? This is a great time to do it (it's discounted from $35 to $10!) And you'll get my first book "Creating Change Through Humanism," for free, making this a really good deal! tinyurl.com/y2earny7 #WorldHumanistDay

Lauren Kunis, the executive director and CEO of VoteRiders: “The history of our country is one of expanding access to the ballot box over time. Sadly we are seeing the reversal of that trend right now on the voter ID front in particular” time.com/7017491/lauren…

We're less than 40 days to Election Day and early voting has started in many states. Many voters DON'T KNOW what identification they need to cast ballots because laws have CHANGED!! Repost this video far & wide! VoteRiders can help you #CheckYourVoterID:

My 3 hopes: 1) I hope our country can withstand this without being forever set back from our potential. (2) I hope those who he and his far right cronies will target can survive. (3) I hope those of us who will resist will be mobilized to be stronger than ever! 🔥 🌈 💪

The president’s executive order requiring documents that prove citizenship to register to vote in federal elections is ILLEGAL and a direct attack on our democracy. Our CEO Lauren Kunis explains why: voteriders.org/documentary-pr…
