Legal fellow Ryan Jayne updates us on FFRF\u2019s New Jersey lawsuit challenging millions of \u201chistoric preservation\u201d dollars handed to churches, many for the purpose of worship. We discuss a cross on a Kentucky city water tower, a cross on an Illinois war memorial, and government censorship of freethought speech. Then we interview feminist atheist author Sikivu Hutchinson about her new book, White Nights, Black Paradise, about Jim Jones's People\u2019s Temple and the 1978 massacre at Jonestown.
