Remember Hypatia

 

Part of the OvercomeHatred subproject of the SpreadPositivity project.

 

Hypatia was a notable mathematician, scientist, teacher, and the last librarian of the Library of Alexandria.

 

She was brutally murdered by a Christian mob during Lent in the year 415. Since she was a pagan, a philosopher (thus skeptic/doubter/questioner of authoritative belief systems), and a woman, it's reasonable to conclude and recognize her murder as a hate-crime on several accounts.

 

Thus, every year during Lent remember and never forget Hypatia 415.
