Should they attempt to position themselves as the party of God, or is there a better path forward? In this episode, Sarah Levin, founder of Secular Strategies and a member of the Democratic National Committee's Interfaith Council, discusses how secular Democrats are collaborating with people of faith to create a truly inclusive big tent. Sarah explores why imitating GOP-style religious politics is a losing strategy and explains how language around morality and shared values can bridge divides between believers and nonbelievers. We dive into the unifying potential of issues like voting rights, democracy, and protecting immigrants, and why the way forward is not about putting God back into the Democratic Party but building a vision of justice and inclusion for all Americans.

We speak with secular political activist Sarah Levin about the evolving landscape for secular voters within the Democratic Party, the implications of interfaith coalitions, and the role of non-religious constituents in upcoming elections.We also explore Sarah's substantial activism, including her role as founder of Secular Strategies and her efforts to establish secular representation within the Democratic National Committee (DNC). She emphasizes the significant strides made since her last appearance, particularly the inclusion of non-religious voices in the DNC's interfaith efforts and the official endorsement of the principle of separation of church and state in the party's platform for the first time. Doug and Sarah also discuss the challenges that still exist, including the perception issues surrounding secular candidates among both voters and the party apparatus.Sarah reflects on the importance of building a political identity that resonates with both non-religious voters and religious individuals, stressing the necessity of intersectionality in politics. We also focus on voter engagement and the upcoming elections.A critical segment of the conversation addresses the complex U.S. relationship with Israel amidst the humanitarian crisis in Gaza. Sarah articulates her belief that while the U.S. has historically provided unquestioned support to Israel, this is a moment for reevaluation—especially in light of the potential ramifications of a Trump administration, which promises more extreme measures than current policies.Finally we encourage listeners to actively participate in the political process, follow updates on secular candidates, and engage in conversations that amplify the non-religious voice. With Sarah Levin's groundwork laying the foundation for future progress, this episode serves as a clarion call to recognize both the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead for secular individuals in politics.Full Show Notes & LinksSend us a textSupport the showSubscribe to our free newsletterCheck out our MerchFind us on Twitter(for now) Find us on InstagramFind us on Counter SocialFind us on Mastadon

After a long long week of activity in Chicago, our friends Sarah Levin (Secular Strategies) and Hemant Mehta (Friendly Atheist), graciously agreed to connect for an exclusive conversation for Unreasonable listeners, recapping what they saw and heard at the Democratic National Convention, especially from a secular perspective, since over 30 percent of the Democratic party is non-religious.There was a lot of god talk coming from the podium. And we get it: Democrats have the opportunity to draw in people of faith who've finally had it with their anti-Christ candidate. How many of those people actually exist? Who knows, but in this game of inches it behooves us to invite them to the party and feel welcome. As they should: honest people of faith do, for the most part, share the social and moral values of secular voters.And though there's still work to be done, tremendous strides have been taken by the party to acknowledge their reliable None voters. Sarah and Hemant walk us through them on this special DNC episode of Unreasonable.Support the Show.Thanks for listening!

So what do we do when the party that generally embraces secular values like bodily autonomy, democracy, and science, demonstrates an abject disinterest in its secular voters, despite representing a huge voting bloc? Could this be the biggest miscalculation in  the Democratic party's strategy? Do we even have a strategy? Okay, that's a lot of questions.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: The Ethics of Posting: Real Names, Pseudonyms, and Burner Accounts, published by Sarah Levin on March 9, 2023 on The Effective Altruism Forum. Recently there's been debate about the ethics of using burner accounts to make attacks and accusations on this forum. See The number of burner accounts is too damn high and Why People Use Burner Accounts especially. This post is a more systematic discussion of poster identity, reputation, and accountability. Types of Accounts We can roughly break accounts down into four categories: Real name accounts are accounts under a name that is easily linkable to the poster's offline identity, such as their legal name. A real name account builds a reputation over time based on its posts. In addition, a real name account's reputation draws on their offline reputation, and affects their offline reputation in turn. Pseudonymous accounts are accounts which are not easily linkable to the poster's offline identity, and which the poster maintains over time. A pseudonym builds a reputation over time based on its posts. This reputation is separate from the poster's offline reputation. Burner accounts are accounts which are intended to be used for a single, transient purpose and then abandoned. They accrue little or no reputation. Anonymous posts are not traceable to a specific identity at all. This forum mostly doesn't have anonymous posts and so I will not discuss them here. All of these accounts have some legitimate uses. Because of the differences in how these types of accounts operate, readers should evaluate their claims differently, especially when it comes to evaluating claims about the community. Posters should use accounts appropriate for the points they are making, or restrict their claims to those which their account can support. Arguments, Evidence, and Accountability When it comes to abstract arguments, the content can be evaluated separately from the speaker, so all this stuff can be disregarded. If someone on this forum wants to post a critique of the statistics used in vitamin A supplementation trials, or an argument about moral status of chickens, or something like that, then the poster's reputation shouldn't matter much, and so it's legitimate to post under any type of account. When 4chan solved an open combinatorics problem while discussing a shitpost about anime, mathematicians accepted the proof and published it with credit to "Anonymous 4chan poster". When it comes to abstract arguments, anything goes, except for blatant fuckery like impersonation or sockpuppet voting. If someone wants to claim expertise as part of an argument, then it helps to demonstrate that expertise somehow. If someone says “I'm a professional statistician and your statistical analysis here is nonsense”, then that rightly carries a lot more weight if it's the real-name account of a professional statistician, or a pseudonymous account with a demonstrable track record on the subject. Burner accounts lack reputation, track records, and credentials, so they can't legitimately make this move unless they first demonstrate expertise, which is often impractical. Things get trickier when it comes to reporting facts about the social landscape. The poster's social position is a legitimate input into evaluating such claims. If I start telling everyone about what's really happening in Oxford board rooms or Berkeley group houses, then it matters a great deal who I am. Am I a veteran who's been deep inside for years? A visitor who attended a few events last summer? Am I just repeating what I saw in a tweet this morning? Advantages of Real Name Accounts Real name accounts can report on social situations with authority that other types of account can't legitimately claim, for two reasons. First, their claims are checkable. If I used this pseudonymous account to make a f...

Le marketing d’influence, qu’est-ce que c’est ? C’est simplement le fait de collaborer avec des leaders d’opinion pour réaliser la promotion d’un produit, un service ou de votre marque. Bien sûr, ce partenariat est rémunéré. J’ai toujours trouvé que l’influence est un canal marketing passionnant et, à mon grand avis, ce canal est très rentable lorsqu’il est bien exploité. Mais, faire du marketing d’influence, c’est aussi une véritable expertise. Il ne suffit pas de sélectionner quelques influenceurs Instagram sur base de quelques critères et leur demander de promouvoir vos offres. Sarah le sait mieux que moi parce qu’elle est la co-fondatrice d’une agence de marketing d’influence qui s’appelle Stellar et qui travaille avec des grand comptes comme L’Oréal, Colgate, Nintendo ou encore le Groupe Disney. Depuis des années, Sarah et son équipe planifient de A à Z des campagnes de marketing d’influence sur tous les réseaux sociaux, qu’il s’agisse d’Instagram, YouTube ou encore TikTok.

Oui, c’est possible de faire quelques prédictions sur base de données historiques. C’est pour ça qu’un outil externe est nécessaireDans la 2e partie de cet épisode, j’ai demandé à Sarah de me parler des différentes plateformes sociales pour faire du marketing d’influence. Entre TikTok, Instagram et YouTube, Sarah m’a expliqué très précisément quelle plateforme est la mieux adaptée selon votre secteur d’activité et vos objectifs. En plus, nous avons parlé des différents formats à privilégier sur chacune des plateformes.

With misinformation about vaccines proliferating among certain groups in the U.S., diseases that had previously been thought eradicated are creeping back into American life. As far as the law is concerned, whether or not a parent chooses to put their own child at risk by denying them vaccinations remains, largely, their personal choice. But this hands-off attitude toward vaccinations, particularly among children, puts everyone else at risk.   Here to talk about the threat posed by the anti-vaccination movement, and what we can do to stop it, are Sarah Levin and Ed Beck. Sarah Levin is the Legislative Associate of the Secular Coalition and Ed Beck is the senior policy analyst for the Center For Inquiry’s Office of Public Policy.
