You may have seen the red A around but wondered what it was all about…
In 2007, a bold red letter A was adopted from The Scarlet Letter to represent atheism. In The Scarlet Letter, the main character, Hester Prynne, is an unwed mother in a Puritan community who is tried and convicted of adultery when she has a child but is unmarried. Her sentence is a requirement to wear a large red letter A as a visual mark of her crime. This book was written during the time of Elizabeth Cady Stanton and a wave of women’s rights activism. In literature, it is often seen as a reflection of the demand for autonomy and equality that was brewing in society. The Scarlet Letter is also found on banned book lists! This design includes symbolism representing atheism, skepticism, and feminism.
