I'm in Phoenix! Taking photos for the American Atheist convention, and looking forward to plots and plans to subvert all the White Boy Atheism, and decolonize atheism. 😁

I am glad, with a bone-deep pain, that this stuff is out now.

Andrew Torrez has been a known quantity at cons for quite a while now, of the "be careful of him," and "he gets drunk & harasses women at conferences," whisper network kind.

Mandisa Thomas has done great work with Black Nonbelievers, but she basically is the organization, so it was subject to any temperamental whims & fits of temper. A small group tried a few years ago to apply pressure to (white) orgs working with her on boards or with BN. That didn't work out well for anyone, & apparently emboldened her to include personal & sexual reasons for excluding folks from BN. As I understand it, Mandisa has accepted the need for a proper board, etc. for accountability, & other people to go to about issues. So we'll see. Oft noted, too, is that only having one group to serve the needs of Black Atheists was always going to be insufficient.

They have become a clearing house and gatherer of statistical (sociological) data on , , in Atheism, in Atheism, and building more on that, and therefore on the various potential combinations and intersections of all of these.

(2/8) I think of the work that has been doing over the last few years, demonstrating the connection between Far Right Patriarchal Christian White Nationalism ( might have said “ white supremacist ”) and its juridical and social assaults on and other folks (and that the money and ideological connections between the and is far more than coincidental, so).

@natehanson So, I first really became aware of the etc. use of as a term at the convention last year, with a bunch of absolutely amazing creators. It was a cool juxtaposition because I'm accustomed to it in the context of and "postmodernism," and I absolutely love the layers and wordplay this plays with.
