About this listen

Humanist values of secularism, science and human rights are inherently communal. The Nomadic Humanist explores how individuals without a single fixed home or community live out humanist values. Through nomadic humanism, we learn to expand the definition of community, building relationships globally across cultures and digital space to share this one life we have.Copyright Atheists United Studios Social Sciences Travel Writing & Commentary
