We had a great year.

Our local chapter of FFRF has been very active in the community this year, from Fayetteville Farmers Markets tableting events, Pride events (in both Fayetteville and Ft. Smith), No Kings Days march, as well as our fantastic 2025 Speaker Series. We had 4 great speakers, Kate Cohen, Forest Valkai, Mickey Dollens, and Alessandro Terenzoni (Americans United). The year is not quite over yet. We plan to again put up the Bill of Right display at Little Rock.

At todays meeting (11/23/25) we reviewed the years activities, things we felt were accomplishments, and areas where we hope to improve next year. We discussed what we still want to accomplish before the end of the year. We also organized some preliminary plans for 2026.

Please join the Facebook and discord to fully engage with the community.

Last Thursday several of the members was able to attend the “learn in” at the University of Arkanasas, where Professor Caldwell discussed his first hand experience with Arkansas 573. Stephen spoke passionately about protecting his son, and working with ACLU and FFRF in fighting this battle.
