Video Found Of Humanist Slamming Steve Harvey’s Comments at AAI 2009

Video footage has surfaced of Humanist Dr. Sikivu Hutchison once again slamming Comedian Steve Harvey’s derogatory comments towards atheists. Dr. Hutchinson has had Harvey in her sights before, this is not new. Recently an organization she founded in Los Angeles, The Black Skeptics Group, targeted Harvey in a promotional ad. It is not known yet if Steve Harvey has reacted to Hutchinson’s attacks.

What sets these shots apart is they were delivered at the Atheist Alliance International 2009 Fall convention.
       

The Black Skeptics Group meets in Los Angeles to provide all races of people (though dedicated to African Americans) with an outlet to express their religious stories and questions. The Group is planning an event of its own: Going Godless In The Black Community (An Open Dialogue On Living Morally And Happily Without Religion) on November 7 in Los Angeles, Ca.

Steve Harvey’s Comments Still Excite Black Humanist

Once again, Dr. Sikivu Hutchinson seems to be taking aim at Steve Harvey. Harvey’s comments regarding his experiences with atheists are “featured” in a promotional ad for an event Hutchinson’s newly formed organization is hosting. The Black Skeptics Group of Los Angeles in promoting the event, An Open Dialogue On Living Morally And Happily Without Religion, used a picture of Harvey and makes note of his comments “Steve Harvey says we have no morals…”

In March of this year in an article entitled “Black Infidels” Hutchinson begins the article by strongly criticizing Harvey’s comments “self-proclaimed dating guru Steve Harvey charged that atheists had no moral values. Anyone who didn’t believe in God was an “idiot,” he said, and women should steer clear of these rogue blasphemers at all costs.”

Jeffery S. Mitchell who met Dr. Hutchinson at the Atheist Alliance Intl 2009 convention, remembers seeing Steve Harvey on Larry King restating his comments. “At the beginning of his (Harvey) comments, I felt he sincerely meant he was at a loss for words to say when communicating with an atheist. I thought he was almost expressing a desire to understand the non-believer’s side” says Mitchell. “Then as the interview went on, I believe Harvey went into his “obnoxious” character routine. He is an entertainer, so I understand completely why he went there.” Mitchell is also a  member of the Black Skeptics Group and created the promotional ad from text he received from Hutchinson. “I’m hoping to reach out to Mr Harvey, as I’m from Northeast Ohio too, and maybe if he is into we can dialogue to better  understand each others position.”

Sikivu Hutchinson, Richard Dawkins, Anthony Pinn To Discuss Faith In the Black Community

Black Skeptics Group founder Dr. Sikivu Hutchinson will be participating in the event Dialogue of Reason: Science and Faith in the Black Community on  Sept. 28 in Washington, DC.

Hutchinson along with famed evolutionary biologist,  author & Professor Emeritus Richard Dawkins of Oxford University, Anthony Pinn and others will meet at Howard to discuss the issues surrounding science within the Black Community as well as the impediments imposed by superstition and religious dogma. The public event is hosted by the Department of Physiology & Biophysics of Howard University, The Richard Dawkins Foundation for Reason and Science, the Secular Students of Howard University, The James Randi Foundation, Center for Inquiry – On Campus, Black Atheists of America as well as other local and national secular groups.

Dawkins & Bill Maher at AAI 2009 Convention

Dr. Sikivu Hutchinson, noted author and activist: “The Black Church’s policing of the bodies and destinies of black women and the lives of gays and lesbians represents a bankrupt ‘morality’ which is just as pernicious as that of the Religious Right… if being black and being Christian are synonymous, then being black, female and religious (whatever denomination) is practically compulsory. Insofar as atheism and humanism provide an implicit rejection of both black patriarchy and ‘authentic’ blackness, those who would dare to come out of the closet as atheists are potential race traitors.”

Hutchinson & Pinn at AAI 2009 Burbank, Ca

Professor Emeritus Richard Dawkins, Oxford University: “Science is for everybody. It is of course useful, and we can use it to solve humanity’s problems. But useful is not all that science is. Science is also beautiful, and its beauty, too, is for everybody. Science tells us the truth about reality, about the real universe which we all inhabit. There is a savage beauty in the cosmos, which dwarfs our petty human concerns and quarrels. Raising our sights to our telescopes’ far horizon, cosmology unites us in awe. At the same time evolution, the unifying theory of all biology, not only explains our very existence but teaches us we are all one family, all kin, regardless of race, with a shared ancestral heritage which binds us into hopes of a shared future.”

Professor Anthony Pinn, Religious Studies at Rice University: “This is an ideal time and this event is an important opportunity to stress the importance for African Americans to critically engage the world and, through reasonable means, assess the issues impinging upon quality of life for African Americans across the country.”

The Black Skeptics Group meets in Los Angeles to provide all races of people (though dedicated to African Americans) with an outlet to express their religious stories and questions. The Group is planning an event of its own: Going Godless In The Black Community on November 7 in Los Angeles, Ca.

Black Skeptics Group To Host L.A. Event

An Open Dialogue On Living Morally And Happily Without Religion
Sunday, November 7, 2010 at 1:00pm
Lucy Florence Coffee House
3351 W. 43rd Street
Los Angeles, CA

“A growing number of blacks are ‘going Godless.’ Steve Harvey says we have no morals, but what about the Catholic Church scandals, predator preachers and Koran-burning crazies? Come join the Black Skeptics Group at Lucy Florence coffehouse in Leimert Park on November 7th at 1:00 in a candid discussion about living happily and morally without religion.” -Dr. Sikivu Hutchinson

We are a group of people who meet in the Los Angeles area to discuss (not argue or debate) our experiences with religion and church as it relates to the black community (all are welcome). We are not here to convert anyone or change anyone’s views. We provide a place to exchange ideas and stories to those people who have questions but feel they cannot openly discuss their faith and belief without persecution.
