PRLog -- Feminism and atheism are "dirty words" that Americans across the political spectrum love to debate—and hate. Throw them into a blender and you have a toxic brew that supposedly defies decency, respectability, and Americana. Add an "unapologetically"
Black critique to the mix and it's a deal-breaking social taboo. Noted author Sikivu Hutchinson's provocative new book
Humanists in the Hood: Unapologetically Black, Feminist, and Heretical explores how progressive "Religious Nones" of color are spearheading an anti-racist, social justice humanism that disrupts the "colorblind"
ethos of European American atheist and humanist agendas. Hutchinson lifts up the lived experiences and social histories of segregated Black and Latinx communities that are increasingly under economic siege. Hutchinson's book makes a valuable and necessary call for social justice change in a polarized climate where Black women's political power has become a galvanizing national force.
