🧵 It's especially tragic that her passing occurred when things look so bleak for secularism in her country. I hope memory of her inspires more to carry on the fight to right the ship.
— Sohan Dsouza, former President of SSOMIT
It is with great sadness that I report the death of zoologist, lecturer, author, fellow Greater Boston resident, secularism advocate/activist, counter-apologist, and SSOMIT Darwin Day speaker Dr Abby Hafer. 🧵
