Lame Duck Day
Ingersoll Day
Ingersoll Day on August 11 is a reminder of the enduring legacy of Robert Green Ingersoll—a champion of reason, freethought, and social justice. His contributions to intellectual discourse and advocacy for humanistic ideals continue to resonate today, inspiring generations to question, explore, and strive for a more rational and compassionate world.
