Ep. 52: Secular Politics in Nebraska – Rachele Walter

Beyond Atheism Podcast

In this episode, we’re joined by Rachele Walter, the current Vice Chair of Secular Democrats of Nebraska and the President of Lincoln Atheists. We talk about the state of secularism in Nebraska and how secular activism and political activism can be both deeply intertwined and yet be kept separate. She also gives us an inside look at how the Secular Democrats have had success getting their party to adopt more secular positions to the party platform. In addition to hearing predictions for the upcoming midterm elections in the US, we also learn whether a true atheist can date someone who is religious or even vote Republican.
In the bonus section, available exclusively to Patreon supporters, we gossip about her funny interactions in political life and learn about the Bad Ass Bitches Brigade.
