Dear Friend,

Have some common sense and join the Secular Coalition for America for a celebration of Thomas Paine Day!

On Tuesday, June 8, leaders and artists from across the freethought community will honor the life and legacy of freethinker, revolutionary, and patriot Thomas Paine in a free, live online event co-hosted by Melissa Myers of the Center for Inquiry and Margaret Downey of the Freethought Society.

Starting at 6:45pm ET on June 8, the 2021 Thomas Paine Day Celebration will begin with a fifteen-minute concert by songwriter and recording artist James Klueh, followed by an introductory statement by Congressman Jamie Raskin, a cofounder of the Congressional Freethought Caucus. 

Robyn Blumner, president and CEO of the Center for Inquiry, and Annie Laurie Gaylor, co-president of the Freedom from Religion Foundation, will also deliver remarks.

“The Life Story of Thomas Paine” will be told by representatives from several freethought organizations, many of which are SCA member organizations:

Also in this live Zoom event:

  • Sculptor Zenos Frudakis will show the progress of the Thomas Paine statue project.
  • Dan Barker, co-president of FFRF, will perform his original song “The World is My Country.” 
  • Experts will answer questions about Paine during a Q&A session.
