Homophobia in the Black Church: How Faith, Politics, and Fear Divide the Black Community (in English)
Anthony Stanford
Synopsis "Homophobia in the Black Church: How Faith, Politics, and Fear Divide the Black Community (in English)"
This book explains how faith, politics, and fear contribute to the homophobic mindset within the Black Church and the African American community. * Draws connections between the fanatical homophobia in contemporary black culture to sexual mores developed as a response to the racial discrimination carried out against blacks since the founding of the nation * Explains how the creation of the Office of Faith-based and Neighborhood Partnership and funds funneled to black churches have encouraged some of the nation's most powerful black religious leaders to dispense hateful rhetoric and malice towards black homosexuals * Reveals how faith-based funding and the Black Church apply strong pressure on black LGBTs to keep their sexual identity a secret
