Sacred Intersections: Where Spirituality and LGBTQ Liberation Meet
In The Fire Next Time, Black queer prophet James Baldwin wrote, “If the concept of God has any validity or any use, it can only be to make us larger, freer, and more loving. If God cannot do this, then it is time we got rid of Him.” The sacred and the political are not mutually exclusive – in fact, they are deeply related. Join Rev. Washington Leapheart for a conversation on how LGBTQ liberation is connected to spiritual resistance and theological (re)formation. SLI credit available
12:10 PM - 1:00 PM in CNS 112
