Strong Women in Secular Spaces: Annie Laurie Gaylor - Religion is Killing American Women
Annie Laurie Gaylor is co-founder and co-president of FFRF – the Freedom from Religion Foundation.
In addition to being a long-time women's rights activist, Annie Laurie is an accomplished author.
Her book, Woe to the Women: The Bible Tells Me So, was first published by FFRF in 1981, and is in its 4th printing.
In 1988, FFRF published her second book Betrayal of Trust: Clergy Abuse of Children, the first book documenting widespread sexual abuse by clergy.
Her 1997 anthology, Women Without Superstition: 'No Gods, No Masters,’ is the first collection of the writings of historic and contemporary women freethinkers.
Today, we discuss how religious beliefs are strangling the USA and harming women - and what we can do about it. If you care about the rights of women and non-christians in America, please become a member of FFRF today.
