We’re excited to connect with fellow secular activists this weekend at #SSAcon
Students and young advocates are informed, motivated, and ready to protect our rights and defend the separation of church and state

.@ChaucerIhrig talks about all the support he found at SSACon, and what you'll find there next year! #SSACon
.@peroshatsaeidi on why she's happy she went to SSACon this year. #SSACon
Justin's a good skeptic, but he's glad he gave SSACon a chance... and he'll see you there next year! #SSACon
#ConversionTherapy is pseudoscience and child abuse, full stop. @JusticeHorn_ worked to make sure Kansas City’s conversion therapy ban went beyond the medical profession, banning the practice in religious settings too. Because religion is never an excuse to abuse a child.

Dr. Kristina Lee teaching us that white #ChristianNationalism was always ingrained in our politics from the nation’s founding despite our #secular Constitution. For example: did you know that Jews were fined for working on Sunday?
(the Christian sabbath)?

“Often the ‘Secular Nation’ narrative inadvertently erases the history of how Christian nationalism has been engrained in U.S. culture and laws in similar ways that white supremacy, patriarchy, and heteronormativity has been.” - SSA Board Member Kristina Lee #SSACon
“I want to thank you all for standing up for Jeffersonian principles and the wall of separation between church and state.” - @RepRaskin #SSACon
.@JusticeHorn_ on running for office: “Don’t lose your soul in this work. I’d rather lose with dignity.”
👏👏👏
#SSACon
THIS!! All of us want elected officials who are public servants, not “politicians.”

.@JusticeHorn_: “If you want change, you have to be that change.” Just running, even if you don’t win, makes a difference by challenging status quo narratives about who is can or “should” run for office.
#SSACon
.@JusticeHorn_: Young candidates aren’t taken seriously, yet young people have always been at the forefront of change “because we have to”—we’re worried about getting shot in school, not being able to buy a house, the climate crisis.

.@paulgolin: The challenge for #secular communities is to articulate the sense of awe, the goosebumps, the visceral emotional and physical responses we have to love, art, nature, meditation, etc. We experience the same spirituality.

#humanism
.@paulgolin: #Secular people participate in rituals and celebrate religious holidays for nonreligous reasons—community, meaning, comfort, love. “It’s a way of being in relationship with the calendar, but really to be in relationship with other people.”
#SSACon
#humanism
“Don’t do it because God commanded it, do it because it does something for you.” @paulgolin explains how you can practice rituals like Shabbat/sabbath in a #secular way for their positive benefits—like having time to reflect, or mark the break from work.
#SSACon
In a classically Jewish fashion, @paulgolin starts with questions instead of answers. How do we provide meaning and comfort to people?
#SSACon
Our #SSACon panelists Liz Cavell of @FFRF, @AndrewLSeidel of @americansunited, Geoffrey Blackwell of @AmericanAtheist, and @lizrplatt of @PRPCP_Columbia are talking about the legal issues faced by secular students and the importance of student advocacy.
