Black Nonbelievers

About Black Nonbelievers

Black Nonbelievers (BN) is a 501 c3 non-profit fellowship of nonbelievers headquartered in the Atlanta area that is dedicated to providing an informative, caring, festive and friendly community. We connect with other Blacks (and allies) who are living free of religion and other beliefs, and might otherwise be shunned by family and friends. Instead of accepting dogma, we seek to determine truth and morality through reason and evidence. BN welcomes all regardless of sex, sexuality, gender identity, age, national origin or race. We extend a caring embrace to all who wish to explore a meaningful and rational life. Mission The mission of Black Nonbelievers is to: • Provide secular fellowship. • Nurture and support nonbelievers in coming out (ie, open identification). • Promote atheist pride. • Organize nonbelievers for charitable causes. Why is this a fellowship of ‘nonbelievers’? The word ‘nonbeliever’ speaks to the kind of mindset we encourage. We encourage people to move from a mindset of faith and belief to reason and rationality. We aren’t just nonbelievers in religion. We are nonbelievers in any claim – religious or otherwise – that is not supported by good evidence. Each of us may be at different stages on the journey to rational enlightenment. As freethinkers (rational nonbelievers) we evaluate (and even RE-EVALUATE) beliefs and claims, then reconsider our position when the evidence calls for a different conclusion. Black Nonbelievers affiliates can be found in the following cities: Atlanta, GA Charlotte, NC Cincinnati, OH Dallas, TX Detroit, MI Louisville, KY Milwaukee, WI Minneapolis, MN New York City, NY Orlando, FL Portland, OR Richmond, VA St. Louis, MO Washington, D.C.
