Ep 492 Mandisa Thomas

February 24, 2019


This week we are joined by Mandisa Thomas to chat about her talk
at the February Minnesota Atheists public meeting, "Fear of a
Black Atheist".


Mandisa Thomas is the founder and President of Black
Nonbelievers, Inc. Although never formally indoctrinated into
belief, Mandisa was heavily exposed to Christianity, Black
Nationalism, and Islam.


Ms. Thomas has a number of media appearances to her credit,
including CBS Sunday Morning, CNN.com, and JET magazine. She has
been a guest on podcasts such as Life After God, The Humanist
Hour and Ask an Atheist, as well as the documentaries
Contradiction and My Week in Atheism. Mandisa served on the Board
for Reason Rally 2016, and previously for Foundation Beyond
Belief, and the Secular Coalition for America. She has presented
at conferences/conventions for American Atheists, Freedom from
Religion Foundation, Secular Student Alliance, and many others.


As the president of Black Nonbelievers, Inc., Ms. Thomas works to
encourage more Blacks to come out and stand strong with their
nonbelief in the face of such strong religious overtones.
