Looking forward to visiting @hhe-humanists.bsky.social tomorrow, not least because I get to talk about the intriguing Hannah Clark, founder of a school in East Grinstead where moral education replaced religious instruction - regularly advertised in @newhumanist.bsky.social from the 1890s

Thanks to generosity of our members, @ishash.bsky.social now hosts a page of teaching resources that bring histories of freethought into cultural and intellectual history, literature and religious studies courses. Check it out! atheismsecularismhumanism.wordpress.com/teaching-res...

Of #HumanistHeritage interest: Wheeldon's funeral was described in the press as being 'devoid of Christian ritual' and 'sensational in its simplicity'.

Pure joy. What a brilliant group of people @electricvoice.bsky.social are and what an incredible community they create in everything they do 👏🏻 @conwayhall.bsky.social

En route to London for Winter Carols by Candlelight @conwayhall.bsky.social 🕯️ Especially excited to hear @electricvoice.bsky.social's reworkings of songs from the ethical societies' hymn books 💝

I wrote this for The Skeptic about the ever intriguing William M. Knox and his (often hilarious) lambasting of the claims of spiritualists in a pamphlet of 1892. www.skeptic.org.uk/2025/11/a-fo...

I am so excited for tomorrow evening's @humanists.uk event with Anthony Pinn and SI Martin - two incredible thinkers, great speakers, and also lovely human beings humanists.uk/events/black...

#OtD 28 Jul 1985 Anti-Fascist Action (AFA) was launched at a meeting at @ConwayHall in London, UK. Its dedication to "physical and ideological opposition" to fascism would see it drive numerous far-right groups off the streets. This is a short history: stories.workingclasshistory.com/article/1002...

Perpetually inspired by the great minds behind (and within) the Our Subversive Voice project. Always a joy to hear South Place/ @conwayhall.bsky.social get a shout out too 📢

#OtD 20 Jun 1912 Voltairine de Cleyre, American anarchist-feminist, atheist, poet and free-thinker, died at the age of 45. Two thousand attended the funeral at Waldheim cemetery where she was buried next to the Haymarket Martyrs stories.workingclasshistory.com/article/9285...

Another truly great @humanists.uk Convention 💜 Inspiring talks, the very loveliest people, and - of course - #HumanistHeritage aplenty
