In this episode, Tommy and Lilin unpack a whirlwind of activism, community engagement, and satanic representation, discussing their recent endeavors and the power of local involvement. From confronting the Texas chaplaincy programs at a recent school board meeting to engaging with secular and pagan communities, this episode explores the heart of satanic advocacy and the importance of standing up for secularism and inclusivity in public spaces.
The hosts recount their recent participation speaking at a local school board meeting convened by the CFISD school board to discuss its implementation of a school Chaplin program in their district, some community events, including a screening of the newly released documentary God and Country produced by Rob Reiner which looks at the dangers of Christian nationalism hosted by Secular Houston, and the 2024 Ostara Market & Egg Hunt hosted by the Polk County Pagan Market, illustrating the diverse ways Satanists can engage with and contribute to their communities. They discuss the importance of visibility, dialogue, and support among various faiths and no faiths, challenging misconceptions and fostering a more inclusive society.
Whether it's speaking at a school board meeting, joining community discussions, or simply being an informed and active member of your community, every effort counts in the fight for a more equitable and secular world.
