[Hac-announce] This Sunday: American politics and the nonreligious

[Richard Siddall]

This is one of several upcoming events at nearby groups that we were 
intending to let HAC members know about in the October newsletter.

*October 4 // 1 PM*
*The Nonreligious in American Politics: Challenges and Promises*
/Juhem Navarro-Rivera, Ph.D/

The Grove // 760 Chapel Street, New Haven, CT

<https://yalehumanists.files.wordpress.com/2015/02/register_to_vote_here_16875514637.jpg>It 
isn't even 2016 yet, but sometimes it feels like the upcoming 
Presidential election is all anyone can talk about. What role will the 
nonreligious play in electing the next President of the U.S.A.? 
Nonreligious Americans are underrepresented in the American political 
system as politicians, candidates, and voters—despite accounting for 
nearly one-quarter of the adult population. Political scientist 
Dr. Juhem Navarro-Rivera will discuss the challenges nonreligious 
Americans face today and how they can shape the American political 
landscape in 2016 and beyond.
