One of the hardest (and most important) things we can do as atheists is come out of the closet and let people know what we stand on the god hypothesis.

We’ve seen studies that show that prejudice against atheists decreases as people know (or even just think) there are more of us out there.

We’ve also seen billboards with messages urging those who are already atheists to make themselves known — instead of trying to “deconvert” people who are religious.

Now, there’s a video campaign with the goal of encouraging more people to speak up and speak out. It’s called “We Are Atheism.”

Co-Founder Adam Brown made this video, which captures the idea of what this is all about:

Here’s a video from one of the other co-founders, Amanda Brown:

I made a video, too. They asked me to share my coming out story, so here you go:

They also have videos from Greta Christina, Edward Tarte, Heather Buchanan, JT Eberhard, and others.

I know not everyone can participate in this project for a variety of reasons… but if you’re able to openly talk about your beliefs, they need your testimonials. Make a video. Upload it (and follow these rules so it can be tracked). Let people know you’re an atheist!

How many videos can we get up there? If you make one, please leave the URL in the comments so we can watch it!
