During Pride month, many corporations and "allies" enthusiastically showcase their support, donning rainbows and sponsoring LGBTQ+ events. But once July 1st rolls around, the vibrant displays of pro-LGBTQ+ sentiments often fade from their workplaces, leaving questions about the depth of their commitment to inclusivity.In this episode, we're addressing “performative allyship,” a form of superficial activism that focuses on the appearance of allyship rather than meaningful action, and discussing how “allies” can and should do better.Related Episodes:Listen to Episode 09.

During Pride month, many folks around the state are reminded, or learning for the first time, that gender and sexuality is a spectrum that goes beyond the traditional LGBTQ+ umbrella. One identity that often gets misrepresented — or even left out entirely — is Two Spirit, an identity unique to Indigenous people. Yanktonai Dakota poet and New Native Theatre senior artistic producer Charli Fool Bear shared what her Two Spirit identity means to her in a conversation with MPR News host Cathy Wurzer.

Every year ITV now has its very own Pride Day and it's a chance to celebrate and support LGBTQ+ people across the company and in the wider community. This year, ITV Pride Day was held at the start of Pride month in June and as part of the celebrations, a live ITV Pridecast was recorded with some of those from across the company to discuss why they're proud to be who they are.Joining Liam McConkey for this special edition of the podcast is Paul Brand, the UK Editor of ITV News and presenter of the Tonight programme. Jess Clayton, a Digital Trainee Journalist at ITV Cymru Wales. Harry Tan, the Senior Vice President of Marketing and Digital Products at ITV Studios. And Stephen Bailey, a stand-up comedian and regular contributor on the Laura Whitmore Breakfast Show.During Pride month and all through the summer, Pride events will be taking place across the globe. They are a chance for members of the LGBTQ+ community and their allies to come together and celebrate but also to show solidarity and a reminder that rights cannot be taken for granted. Discrimination and even hatred towards LGBTQ+ people still exists in many countries across the world and even in Britain, people's rights are being tested. The Rainbow Map and Index ranks all 49 countries in Europe in order of their LGBTQ+ “legal and policy” rights and has done so since 2009. Up until 2015, the UK regularly found itself in top spot as the most LGBTQ+ friendly place in Europe. However, now in 2023 it has fallen to 17th position.If anything, what this shows is the importance of Pride and the power it has in championing LGBTQ+ people. Pride first began as a protest and those roots are something that cannot be forgotten, especially when the community is facing such testing times today.

In a new piece for Salt Lake Magazine, Christie Porter writes that marginalized students at Brigham Young University are more visible “than ever before.” During Pride month, she asked current students if this increased visibility is leading to increased acceptance in the wider school community. Plus, Navajo Nation officials launched Operation Rainbow Bridge to help Navajo citizens caught up in fraudulent rehab centers. And, the Moab Sun News previews the Grand County Commission meeting. // Show Notes: // Photo: Pride Flag, courtesy Benson Kua via Wikimedia Commons // Salt Lake Magazine: The State of LGBTQ+ Activism at BYU https://www.saltlakemagazine.com/the-state-of-lgbtq-activism-at-byu/ // Grand County Commission 6/6 Agenda https://grandcountyut.portal.civicclerk.com/event/10/overview

While the last few decades have shown major progress when it comes to LGBTQ+ rights globally, queer people have had to continue to fight for them. During Pride month there have been several high-profile instances of violence targeted at queer people. These events are stark reminders that the struggle for equal rights and safety for LGBTQ+ people continues. NPR's Ari Shapiro spoke with three high-level diplomats assigned to LGBTQ+ issues – the U.S.'s Jessica Stern, Italy's Fabrizio Petri and Argentina's Alba Rueda – about whether life is improving for queer people globally.In participating regions, you'll also hear a local news segment to help you make sense of what's going on in your community.Email us at considerthis@npr.org.

This is Father Jared Cramer from St. John's Episcopal Church in Grand Haven, Michigan, here with today's edition of Christian Mythbusters, a regular segment I offer to counter some common misconceptions about the Christian faith. During Pride month, I've been talking about the relationship between Christianity and the LGBTQIA+ community. Thank you to all of you who joined the people of St. John's Episcopal for worship at Waterfront Stadium this past Sunday to celebrate that final Sunday of Pride Month and all of God's beloved children. My deep hope and prayer is that we will be able to do this event again next year and have more churches in the Tri-Cities join us. In this final Christian Mythbusters episode for Pride Month, I have one final thing I'd like to talk to you about, something that often gets overlooked in discussions surrounding the place of LGBTQIA+ persons in the church: the gifts that the individuals of this community can bring to the church—indeed, the gifts that many of them already bring. When meeting with one of the same-sex couples at my church back when they first joined, they shared some of their story with church in the past. It broke my heart. I then told them that not only would they be welcome here, but that I was excited to see the gifts I knew they would bring, how they would bless us. They expressed surprise at this response—because the best they'd ever gotten from the church was being tolerated. They'd never been celebrated. In an essay called “The Body's Grace” by former Archbishop of Canterbury Rowan Williams, Archbishop Williams talks about the gifts that same-sex couples can bring to the church. He notes that for far too long the church has often treated sexual intimacy as only good when it is for procreation. The Roman Catholic Church today still treats the desire to procreate as an essential component of the sexual act between a married couple. The problem with this view, from Archbishop William's perspective is that it depends on a strained reading of the Biblical text. In the Hebrew Bible, for example, when the mother of the yet-to-be born prophet Samuel weeps because she doesn't think she can have children, her husband responds by asking if he, as her husband, is not more than ten children. In the passionate Song of Solomon, both the partners in the relationship clearly delight in sexual intimacy using some pretty strong and descriptive language that doesn't have a lot to do with making babies. In the New Testament, both Jesus and Paul talk about marriage and sexual intimacy, but neither uses procreation as the rational or functional justification. Indeed, Paul's emphasis in both First Corinthians and in Ephesians is the partner willingly giving herself or himself to their beloved, that this is the richness of the sexual relationship. Williams suggests that this giving yourself to the other, this mutual delight, could be described as “entering the body's grace.” And then he then wonders if “we are afraid of facing the reality of same-sex love because it compels us to think through the processes of bodily desire and delight in their own right.” That is, Williams is suggesting that one of the gifts same-sex couples bring to the church is that they can help straight couples understand marriage and sex better… because their relationships as same-sex couples are not founded upon pro-creation in the same way, but instead on a mutual delight in the other. I'd also suggest that the commitments I've witnessed in same-sex marriages can be instructive for straight marriages in the church. Many same-sex couples have faced significant adversity in their own lives and that has helped them build a rock-solid commitment and trust in one another—and I have a feeling they could teach straight couples how do to that better. Many LGBTQIA+ people also know what it feels like to be rejected by your church, even by your own family. In response, they have built rich communities and friendships, places where the lack of blood relationship does not preclude deep commitment and trust. They can teach straight and cisgender people in the church who have experienced rejection from their own families or churches how to move forward, how to forge lasting relationships in other ways. And it's not only gay and lesbian individuals and couples who have wisdom and gifts to bring. Bisexual, queer, and questioning individuals can help us better understand that sexuality isn't a black and white question, but that it is a spectrum of attraction that functions differently in each individual. Pansexual people love people for who they are, regardless of their gender, a truth that has its own richness. Asexual people find delight in many other places in life and lack the desire (even the sometimes obsession for sex) that others have. And people with different gender identities, whether transgender or intersex, have much to teach us about the biology and spirituality of gender. They are often invisible, many times even violently pushed to the side or hidden from view, but they are also a part of God's created order, worthy of love, celebration, and inclusion. They have much to teach cisgender people. So, I'll hope you'll take these final days of pride month as an opportunity to learn, to make new friends, to grow in your own understanding of sexuality and gender identity. And I hope that churches that are not affirming will wrestle with these questions once more. Because let me just say, as the pastor of an affirming church, by not having LGBTQIA+ people publicly affirmed in your pews… Wow, you are missing out on some absolutely amazing and godly people in your own congregation. Thanks for being with me. To find out more about my parish, you can go to sjegh.com. Until next time, remember, protest like Jesus, love recklessly, and live your faith out in a community that accepts you but also challenges you to be better tomorrow than you are today.

We begin this episode with a man looking for a functional shoe. Then, we discuss speaking ill of the dead. Is it wrong to speak honestly about someone who lived their life as a turd? During Pride weekend our neighbors were partying pretty hard. But, are they LGTBQ+? Then, we discuss a very naughty doctor who ran Ohio State University's good name into the ground. Rate us, share us, become us!

This is Father Jared Cramer from St. John's Episcopal Church in Grand Haven, Michigan, here with today's edition of Christian Mythbusters, a regular segment I offer to counter some common misconceptions about the Christian faith. During Pride month, I've been talking about the relationship between Christianity and the LGBTQIA+ community. This week, I'd like to talk about the problems surrounding the traditional teaching of the church on these questions—and the harm it can do. As I mentioned a couple weeks ago, the Scriptural questions surrounding the place of LGBTQIA+ people in the church can get thorny. Very easily, people fall into their own sorts of proof-texting, each person coming up with Scripture that justifies their own view. Part of the reason for this is that Scripture is not a monolithic witness. Rather, Scripture is the unfolding story of God's grace—and our growing apprehension of God's grace and design for us and the world. Sometimes, there are just different ways of telling the story in the Bible. In Genesis one, for example, humanity is created last, as the pinnacle of creation. In Genesis two, however, humanity is created before animals and given stewardship. If the point of the creation narratives is a newsreel retelling of the events, this is a problem. But if the point is not about specific order, but theological principals revealed in myth and ancient story, then we can find the inconsistencies helpful for understanding the text. At other times the Bible simply disagrees with itself. When the Jewish people returned from captivity in Babylon, Ezra commanded them to divorce their foreign wives. However, this is contrary to the prohibitions on how you treat foreigners in Leviticus 19 and is in direct contrast to the story of Ruth, a Moabite, who marries Boaz and becomes the great-grandmother of King David. The prophet Malachi, writing after Ezra, also argues against putting away a foreign wife simply based upon her ethnicity. In short, the old saying, “The Bible says it. I believe it. That settles it,” simply does not really work in practice.  But there is a deeper reason why using those seven verses people claim are about homosexuality to exclude and discriminate against LGBTQIA+ people is wrong—because that reading of the Bible comes at a cost If you are opposed to people of different sexual and gender identities expressing themselves honestly according to their own understanding of themself, then the question becomes… what is the message of the church to the gay Christian? And does that message sound like Jesus? Most conservative Christians respond that the message is “Go and sin no more,” echoing Jesus in the Gospel of John. But what does that look like? For some people, the message of the church has been that God's grace can change you and make you straight or cisgender. This has been the claim of so-called reparative or conversion therapy. However, there is no reliable evidence that this is actually possible. Indeed, there is actually reliable evidence that it is not only ineffective but can cause significant harm, leading to suicide, this is why it is deemed to be an unethical practice by the American Psychological Association and is illegal in several jurisdictions. One of the largest proponents of this approach, Exodus International, disbanded in 2013 the board published a statement repudiating their use of reparative therapy and apologizing for the harm they had done. So, neither prayer nor psychology can turn a gay person straight or a transgender person into a cisgender person. The next offering I'll usually hear is that the message of the church is that gay people should live celibate lives. This is the stance the American Association of Christian Counselors took when they removed their promotion of conversion therapy from their code of ethics. However, the church has long understood celibacy as a gift some people may be called to but never as something that can be imposed upon a class of people due to their biology. We've already established that you don't choose to be gay. Requiring someone who happens to be gay to be celibate would be a violent imposition of a manner of life on a whole class of people without regard to God's calling in their lives. Some might respond that straight people are also called to chaste lives until they're married. I'd counter that even that view is a shrinking one these days, but that at least straight people are told to be chaste until they find someone. Gay people are not given that chance by much of the church. So, what is the message of the church to LGBTQIA+ people. It must be two-fold. First, that you are the way you are through no choice or fault of your own. Indeed, this is your natural state of existence—a state that is found in the rest of God's creation at times. Second, you are called, just like anyone else, to holiness of life: by living in covenanted relationship with the person you love, should you so chose. The affirmation of same-sex marriage is indeed the best graced response to gay Christians, an avenue that enables them to be who they are, while also to receive the gifts of the sacrament of marriage just like straight people. And, one more time, if you're LGBTQIA+ or an ally, and you live in West Michigan, I'd invite you to join me on Sunday, June 27, at 10am at the downtown Waterfront Stadium in Grand Haven, for a special pride worship service to celebrate all of God's beloved children. Thanks for being with me. To find out more about my parish, you can go to sjegh.com. Until next time, remember, protest like Jesus, love recklessly, and live your faith out in a community that accepts you but also challenges you to be better tomorrow than you are today.

It's vital that there be accurate and inclusive representation of LGBTQ people in the stories we tell. Are the right people telling these stories? If not, why?rnrnEarlier this year, the LGBTQ advocacy organization GLAAD released its annual Where We Are on TV report. For the first time in five years, the overall representation of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer characters on television decreased. Despite the overall decrease, the racial diversity of queer characters increased. Amid pandemic setbacks, how do storytelling entities - media, television, film, literature, art and culture - create accurate and authentic portrayals of members of the LGBTQ community?rnrnQueer representation in media, literature, and arts and culture can break new ground with stories and depictions that resist harmful stereotypes. During Pride month and a hotly contested American culture, where is the public at large in understanding the intersectionality of race, gender identity and expression, and sexuality?rnrnJoin us as two local leaders discuss LGBTQ+ visibility in Northeast Ohio media, arts and culture, and literature.

For this, the first-ever patrons-only Blocked and Reported interview, Jesse interviewed Ben Burgis, a philosopher, prolific writer for Jacobin and other outlets, and the author of Give Them an Argument: Logic for the Left. Among other subjects, the duo discussed self-sabotaging messaging on the left, the flaws in Jordan Peterson's conception of 'post-modernism,' and the class element missing from the police-reform discussion. At the end, Jesse tried to get Ben to turn him into a socialist. Did it work? Only one way to find out.  A few articles by Ben: "Socialism and Human Nature," "Capitalism Isn’t Working. But What Would a Viable Socialist System Look Like?," and "Why Jordan Peterson Is Always Wrong."   Below you'll find a guide to what is discussed at which points in the podcast.
