AMERICA THE BEAUTIFUL? - American Pride vs. LGBTQ Pride
Join us as we delve into the complex intersections of faith, politics, and identity in our exploration of Christian nationalism and its profound impact on the LGBTQ community. From legislative battles to personal narratives, we uncover how the fusion of religious doctrine with political power has historically marginalized and harmed LGBTQ individuals. Today we discuss how holding LGBTQ pride and American Pride do not have to be in tension.
