This year's Pride celebration is such an important one for queer people. Not only are we still fighting the good fight, but we are also remembering the Stonewall Riots that happened 50 years ago. We honor the strong and courageous queer folks behind that uprising and continue the work that they have started 5 decades ago.
This episode talks about:
- The deep and personal meaning of Pride to both Brian and Father Shay
- Remembering how the Stonewall riots changed the history of queer people
- Mad respect for the people of color and trans women of color who sacrificed a lot for the uprising 50 years ago
- The magnitude of work that still needs to be done for the rights and protection of queer people
- The importance of having a supportive community as a queer person
- How all this relates to reading the Bible in its context
Here are some articles where we talk about Pride, our thoughts, and personal experience.
