Humanism And Political Reform - Talk by Graham Smith

This is an external event organised by Haywards Heath Humanists
Hear from Graham Smith on his campaigning to replace the monarchy with an elected head of state, and to explore humanism's impact on political beliefs, major reforms, and individual activism.
Humanists can have a wide range of political, ideological, and partisan views. But are there certain political causes humanists are, or should be, more likely to support? From a constitutional religious monarchy, to a parliamentary bishops’ bench, and our education system, the structure of the UK state has many vestiges of Christian privilege. How might political and democratic reforms affect the ability of the humanist movement to advance common causes? What does current research tell us about the political beliefs of humanists?
