Americans United for Separation of Church and State, Orange County chapter is proud to present Kate Cohen, who will discuss her latest book.
Kate Cohen
She is a Washington Post contributing columnist and author of We of Little Faith: Why I Stopped Pretending to Believe (And Maybe You Should Too), which chronicles Kate's journey to outspoken atheism and argues that nonbelievers should be more vocal, for the good of the country.
For this work and for her columns inspecting America's outsized deference to religion, the Freedom from Religion Foundation honored her with its "Freethought Heroine" award in 2023. She has spoken to groups large and small around the country, and recently gave the keynote address for the inaugural Congressional Reason Reception in Washington, D.C.
American Crusade
How the Supreme Court is Weaponizing Religious
She wrote her first book, The Neppi Modona Diaries: Reading Jewish Survival through My Italian Family (UPNE), soon after receiving her bachelor’s degree in Comparative Literature at Dartmouth College. The Neppi Modona Diaries tells the sometimes conflicting stories of a family of Jews who suffered under fascist racial laws in Italy and went into hiding to survive the Nazi invasion. It also explores Kate’s own perspective as a post-Holocaust, non-believing Jew at the end of the twentieth century.
Kate is the author of two previous books and the mother of three children. She lives with her husband on a hay farm in Albany, New York.
Please join us for what will be an informative and interesting program.
