World AIDS Day is coming up on Dec. 1 and leaders in the HIV/AIDS field are taking this time to reflect on the enormous progress the medical community has made to reduce the spread and improve the lives of people living with HIV. That progress was made in no small part from the shift in public narratives around the disease. A Minnesotan is exploring the life of Randy Shilts, a little-little known leader from those early days of the HIV/AIDS crisis. Shilts was a pioneering journalist from San Francisco who worked to change the narratives and reporting around the HIV/AIDS crisis in the 1980s. Michael G. Lee is a professor at Saint Mary's University and the author of a new book about Shilts' life called “When the Band Played On.” He joins MPR News host Nina Moini to talk about it.

October is LGBTQ+ History month! We talk this month with author Michael Lee about his new biography of Randy Shilts that was officially released on  October 8, 2024. “When the Band Played On” tells the story of the trailblazing journalist and author Randy Shilts. Michael started his national book tour … Continue reading → The post Show Notes – Oct. 27, 2024 appeared first on Outbeat Radio News.

The New York Women's House of Detention was a fixture of Greenwich Village from 1932 to 1974. For public historian Hugh Ryan, its position as a cultural center is proof that jails and prisons were not always peripheral to the development of communities in the United States. In fact, they were sometimes considered in the urban planning of cities and neighborhoods. Ryan discovered the Women's House of Detention (also known as The House of D) on a walking tour, where he also learned of its unfamiliar history as a queer landmark. His curiosity unearthed a plethora of evidence verifying this claim, largely drawn from social worker documentation of the queer experiences of justice-involved youth and working-class people throughout the twentieth century. In his recent book, The Women's House of Detention: A Queer History of a Forgotten Prison (Bold Type Books, 2022), Ryan asserts: "The House of D helped make Greenwich Village queer, and the Village, in return, helped define queerness for America. No other prison has played such a significant role in our history, particularly for working-class women and transmasculine people." Ryan also demonstrates how people housed at the institution, such as notable activists Angela Davis and Afeni Shakur, informed each other about the intersections of Black and queer liberation movements. In this episode, Malcolm Tariq, senior manager of editorial projects for PEN America's Prison and Justice Writing, asks Ryan about being a student of abolition, the ethics of constructing narratives from archives, and how people in the House of Detention participated in the resistance efforts at nearby Stonewall in 1969. Hugh Ryan is a writer and curator, and most recently, the author of The Women's House of Detention: A Queer History of a Forgotten Prison, which New York Magazine called one of the best books of 2022. His first book, When Brooklyn Was Queer, won a 2020 New York City Book Award, was a New York Times Editors' Choice in 2019, and was a finalist for the Randy Shilts and Lambda Literary Awards. He was honored with the 2020 Allan Berube Prize from the American Historical Association. Since 2019, he has worked with the NYC Dept. of Education to develop LGBTQ+ inclusive educational materials and trainings. Malcolm Tariq is a poet and playwright from Savannah, Georgia. He is the author of Heed the Hollow (Graywolf, 2020), winner of the Cave Canem Poetry Prize and the 2020 Georgia Author of the Year Award in Poetry, and Extended Play (Gertrude Press, 2017). He was a 2016-2017 playwriting apprentice at Horizon Theatre Company and a 2020-2021 resident playwright with Liberation Theatre Company. A graduate of Emory University, Malcolm holds a PhD in English from the University of Michigan. He lives in Brooklyn, New York, where he is the senior manager of editorial projects for Prison and Justice Writing at PEN America.

In conversation with Sayeeda Rashid, Director of the Center for Gender Resources and Sexual Education at Haverford College Hugh Ryan is the author of When Brooklyn Was Queer, a ''boisterous, motley ... entertaining and insightful'' (The New York Times Book Review) analysis of the famous borough's LGBTQ+ history from the 1850s to present. Winner of a New York City Book Award and a New York Times Editors' Choice, it was a finalist for the Randy Shilts and Lambda Literary Awards. Ryan earned the 2020 Allan Berube Prize from the American Historical Association and residencies or fellowships from Yaddo, The Watermill Center, the New York Public Library, and the New York Foundation for the Arts. In The Women's House of Detention, he examines the history of the United States's current crisis of incarcerating queer and transgender people through the story of the notorious mid-20th century Manhattan prison that held tens of thousands of women, transgender men, and gender-nonconforming people.

David is a political writer and former attorney who took on high-profile cases for religious liberty. He was also a major in the Army Reserve who served in Iraq, and before that he served as president of FIRE, the campus free-speech group. David now writes for The Dispatch and The Atlantic, and his latest book is Divided We Fall: America's Secession Threat and How to Restore Our Nation. Last summer he wrote this wonderful review of my essay collection, Out On A Limb, but this is the first time we’ve spoken.You can listen to the episode right away in the audio player above. For two clips of my convo with David — on how many political Christians completely miss the point of Jesus, and on the “God gap” within the Democratic coalition — head over to our YouTube page.That convo is a good complement to our January episode with Christopher Rufo (the two have tussled before), so we just transcribed Rufo’s episode in full. Here’s a reminder of his stance on CRT in the schools:Starting around the 30-minute mark in the new episode, David and I discuss the tricky defense of liberalism in the face of both CRT curriculum and anti-CRT bills. We also grapple with the corrosive effects of Twitter and, in particular, the commentary surrounding the racist massacre in Buffalo this week. On that note, a reader writes:I am a member of a mainline Christian denomination and parent of young children. My personal and professional experience of social media is centered on connections with clergy colleagues and active church members attached to a wide variety of Christian denominations. When news of the racially motivated shooting in Buffalo broke, my social media relationships immediately shifted to a flurry of outrage, comments about the pox of racism built into the American way, and pithy memes noting that the root problem of all that ails us is white supremacy.For example, one friend wrote in response to the Buffalo shooting, “The root cause of gun violence is white supremacy. We will not be safe from gun violence until we end white supremacy. White fam, we are the ones who can end white supremacy. It is on us.” Presiding Bishop Michael Curry of the Episcopal Church released a statement decrying the racism behind the shooting. Members of my left-leaning church have asked and encouraged me to preach from the pulpit about the evils of white supremacy and white fragility, especially now in light of the Buffalo shooting. However, I did not hear a thing from these same people or religious bodies following the racially motivated shooting by Frank James on the NYC subway last month. Mr. James has been indicted on federal terror charges after shooting ten people. Were there no official prayers for victims and to end racial violence from religious bodies because no one ultimately died in the subway shooting? Why were there no tweets, memes, or impassioned calls to “do better” after such a horrific, calculated attack? The silence after that racially motivated shooting compared to the outcry after this month’s racially motivated shooting is noteworthy. And essential to the CRT worldview. Racism is unique to white people. Another sign of our racialized culture war comes from this listener:In your episode with Douglas Murray, you mentioned that you had to explain to someone how white people did not invent racism. I serve at the school board in Manhattan and we had the same discussion at our last meeting. The district is pushing a book called “Our Skin” to teach elementary kids how white people invented racism. Money quote:“A long time ago, way before you were born, a group of white people made up an idea called race. They sorted people by skin color and said that white people were better, smarter, prettier, and that they deserve more than everybody else,” the book declares.Here’s how Murray addresses the canard that white people invented racism:On a lighter note, here’s a fan of last week’s episode with Tina Brown:In your conversation about the Queen’s inscrutable nature and unceasing impartiality, you forget one spectacular lapse into utter bias: the 1995 referendum on Quebec sovereignty!Pierre Brassard, a Quebec disc jockey, called Buckingham Palace impersonating the (then) Canadian PM Jean Chretien begging her to support the NO side and, astonishingly, got through to Queen Elizabeth! In the conversation, broadcast live in Montreal, she actually said, “It sounds as though the referendum may go the wrong (!) way...”. She said many other things that were blatantly against Quebec separating and was willing to make a public statement. Here’s the audio (and pardon Elizabeth R’s surprisingly bad French!): While I voted Non and thought the hoax was screamingly hilarious, this referendum was about the self-determination of a nation and she was hardly a glowing example of non-interference and impartiality. Quebec separatists were apoplectic. She wouldn’t even make a clear declaration in favour of the “No” side in the Scottish referendum! Ah, well ... even Captain Kirk broke the prime directive 33 times. Self-determination must be overrated. Here’s Tina on why the best British monarchs tend to be women:Another fan of the episode writes:So I’m a stereotypical NPR-listening, NYT-reading, Anglophilic liberal, happy to watch whatever B-grade pablum PBS airs on Sunday nights, as long as it has a British accent. So of course I fell in love with Downton Abbey. Part of my stereotypical outlook is holding a certain condescension toward the lower-class examples of American culture — you’d never catch me watching a soap opera, for example. But somewhere in the last season of Downton Abbey, it hit me full-on that the show is just a soap opera for snobs. That realization was a nice, bright, uncomfortable look in the mirror. What a hypocrite I am! That said, I can’t wait for the new Downton Abbey movie that opens this week:On the subject of Americans and their relationship with the British monarchy that you and Tina Brown discussed, to me it isn’t very complicated. It’s the embodiment of our cultural heritage, so it represents roots and stability in our land that values change and progress. And the monarchy is sacramental — another quality our society lacks, and which we’ve projected onto the office of the president as compensation. Toggling from listeners to readers, one of the latter writes:I have been thinking a lot about your May 6 column on the SCOTUS leak (“How Dare They!”) and the following week’s large number of reader responses to it. First, I want to say that, although I’m fiercely pro-choice, your column was strongly persuasive and helped me to think about Roe v Wade in a very different way. I love this about the Dish — the way you introduce complexity and nuance to issues that are polarizing and thus typically presented in stark black-and-white terms. But there is one potential detail of your argument that I continue to struggle with. While I accept that, in a liberal society, such issues as abortion should be a matter of debate and resolution via the popular voice, in practice they rarely are — because of the reality of our political system. Because of our two-party system and the primary elections that determine candidacy, most moderate, centrist voters simply do not have a choice to exercise their opinion on a wide variety of issues. They cannot vote individually on issues of substance, in an a la carte fashion. They are forced to accept a homogenous party platform that, in toto, represents the least worst of two extremes. For example, if I am a pro-choice moderate conservative who supports free markets, minimal government regulation, and low taxation, and is concerned about wokeness and CRT, my only choice to cast a vote in support of access to abortion is to vote for a candidate who is antagonistic to these other issues of import to me. You cite statistics in your column indicating broad support among Republicans for a moderate stance on abortion. Yet, I would argue that relatively few of these voters are going to voice that support by voting for a Democratic candidate — especially a far-left candidate — even if this means voting for the far-right opponent. This, then, is interpreted by the GOP as proof that their constituency supports the extreme view held by the majority of the GOP candidates. If we had a center party, I may be more optimistic in sharing your view of things. But as it stands, I feel like our choice is no choice at all.I feel you. But this is unavoidable in a democracy with political parties and winner-takes-all systems. Another reader has a few more laments:I believe anti-abortion-rights activists have not fully considered the consequences of how eliminating legal abortion will impact families. It is almost certain that the rate of child poverty in America will increase if a ban on abortion takes place.  Most of the states which want to ban abortion also have small child-welfare programs. That will result in more children being born into poor economic circumstances.Another thing that will probably happen is an increase in crime. The crime rate in the US has been falling since the early ‘90s, when kids born after Roe first started reaching adulthood. There is a clear link between kids being neglected and unwanted and then turning to crime. This was documented in the book Freakonomics.I believe the pro-choice side will win this debate. But perhaps it will only win when the full, horrifying consequences of banning all abortions — such as in the Oklahoma bill just passed — comes into focus. This next reader goes meta:In your otherwise excellent compilation of reader thoughts about Roe, you had one response I want to quibble with. After quoting one reader, you wrote: “Oh please. This next reader gets specific:” — and then went on with the next quote.I don’t recall what the first reader said, and it doesn’t matter because your response was inappropriate no matter what was said. If you think the reader’s argument has no merit, omit the comment. If you have a rebuttal to the reader’s argument, offer it. Even if you disagree with the reader but lack the time or energy to formulate a proper response, that’s fine too: Just print the comment with no response.What’s not OK, ever, is to reply with just a snarky dismissal and no further comment. That’s rude to the reader, and it makes you look like a dick.That whole big collection of reader dissents was compiled and edited by my colleague, Chris, who does that every week to hold my feet to the fire. I don’t censor the reader criticism he offers — so forgive me the occasional harrumph. Another reader switches topics:I read these two excerpts in your weekly money quotes:“There were also homosexual women at the Pines, but they were, or seemed to be, far fewer in number. Nor, except for a marked tendency to hang out in the company of large and usually ferocious dogs, were they instantly recognizable as the men were,” - Midge Decter, who died the week, on Fire Island in the summer of 1980.“Well, if I were a dyke and a pair of Podhoretzes came waddling toward me on the beach, copies of Leviticus and Freud in hand, I’d get in touch with the nearest Alsatian dealer pronto,” - Gore Vidal, responding to Midge.I had known about Decter’s “The Boys on the Beach” essay for decades, maybe since the late ‘80s, but I had never read it — until a few months ago. I am 66 years old, was practically always out, loved to read all the gay literature, and I have to say, that essay got the pulse of ‘70s gay life and society better than Edmund White (his “States of Desire” was published in 1980 and I still have my copy) or any other commentator I know of, with the exception of Randy Shilts’s “And the Band Played On.”Decter had gay acquaintances, friends, and frenemies, and she saw aspects of gay life with a beady-eyed sharpness and skepticism I wish more of us had had back then. I remember when I officially came out in 1974 at 18, met a couple of good-looking guys in their late 20s/early 30s who, like the vast majority of gay men, talked about sex all the time, with a greater intensity than straight guys I knew. So I asked them how many guys they had been to bed with and they said maybe 500 or 600. Asked them if they were afraid of getting diseases, and they said “no” because they just went to the public health clinic to get a shot. And right there, I sensed that at some point, there would be a gay healthcare catastrophe. I was not the only who had that sense, but it was very censored in the community.I tend to agree about Decter’s accuracy and perception, however laced it was with disgust. It’s a riveting piece — proof that sometimes being alien to a subculture makes you a better observer of it. She and Larry Kramer were essentially on the same page when it came to gay male culture in the 1970s. And yes, the omens were there. And now there’s monkeypox, which seems as if it might have found the same transmission route as HIV. Gulp.Lastly, because we ran out of room this week in the main Dish for the new VFYW contest photo (otherwise the email version would get cut short), here ya go:Where do you think it’s located?

Historian Hugh Ryan joins Zerlina and Jess on the show to discuss his new book The Women's House of Detention: A Queer History of a Forgotten Prison, out on May 10! This singular history of a prison, and the queer women and trans people held there, is a window into the policing of queerness and radical politics in the twentieth century.The Women's House of Detention, a landmark that ushered in the modern era of women's imprisonment, is now largely forgotten. But when it stood in New York City's Greenwich Village, from 1929 to 1974, it was a nexus for the tens of thousands of women, transgender men, and gender-nonconforming people who inhabited its crowded cells. Some of these inmates—Angela Davis, Andrea Dworkin, Afeni Shakur—were famous, but the vast majority were incarcerated for the crimes of being poor and improperly feminine. Today, approximately 40 percent of the people in women's prisons identify as queer; in earlier decades, that percentage was almost certainly higher.Historian Hugh Ryan explores the roots of this crisis and reconstructs the little-known lives of incarcerated New Yorkers, making a uniquely queer case for prison abolition—and demonstrating that by queering the Village, the House of D helped defined queerness for the rest of America. From the lesbian communities forged through the Women's House of Detention to the turbulent prison riots that presaged Stonewall, this is the story of one building and much more: the people it caged, the neighborhood it changed, and the resistance it inspired.Hugh Ryan is a writer and curator. His first book, When Brooklyn Was Queer, won a 2020 New York City Book Award, was a New York Times Editors' Choice in 2019, and was a finalist for the Randy Shilts and Lambda Literary Awards. He was honored with the 2020 Allan Berube Prize from the American Historical Association. In 2019-2021, he worked on the Hidden Voices: LGBTQ+ Stories in U.S. History curricular materials for the NYC Department of Education.

John-Manuel Andriote has written about health and medical issues since the mid-1980s. He has specialized in reporting on HIV-AIDS since earning a master's degree in journalism from Northwestern University in 1986. Kirkus Reviews called his award-winning University of Chicago Press book VICTORY DEFERRED: How AIDS Changed Gay Life in America “the most important AIDS chronicle since Randy Shilts' AND THE BAND PLAYED ON.” Andriote has served as a communication consultant for U.S. government public health agencies, and as an adjunct university communications and journalism instructor. A man of many interests, Andriote's other books include HOT STUFF: A Brief History of Disco; THE ART OF FINE CIGARS; TOUGH LOVE: A Washington Reporter Finds Resilience, Ruin, and Zombies in His ‘Other Connecticut' Hometown; WILHELMINA GOES WANDERING, “a fable for kids ages 5 to 105,” based on the true story of a runaway cow in Connecticut; and, most recently, STONEWALL STRONG: Gay Men's Heroic Fight for Resilience, Good Health, and a Strong Community. Andriote since 2017 has written the “Stonewall Strong” blog on resilience for Psychology Today magazine. He has been a frequent guest speaker, expert news source, guest writer, and patient advocate since “coming out publicly” about his 2005 HIV diagnosis. In 2021, Andriote relocated from his native state of Connecticut to Atlanta, Georgia, where he holds a full-time position as senior writer for Winship Cancer Institute of Emory University.

Out gay journalist Randy Shilts desperately wanted to work for a big-city newspaper. No one wanted him. But reporting on the AIDS crisis brought him the success and fame he craved—and more than a little controversy.

Sure, sure, everybody wants to know the plot summary. But why does the plot matter? How can you as a writer make your readers care about the plot?

Today is the 70th birthday of Randy Shilts, the author of the Harvey Milk biography and the book And The Band Played On, of which I can see my copy as I type this. You absolutely have to read the book and/or watch the film, it is your job as a human to understand, empathize, and learn. Always strive for more understanding. I first read And The Band Played On one Summer at Interlochen, it was before I had any direct connection to HIV/AIDS. Since then, I have worked with, befriended, and loved people living with HIV. I have volunteered hundreds of hours and raised thousands of dollars to support people living with HIV/AIDS, to educate youth about HIV/AIDS, and to research a cure for HIV/AIDS. The world is a better place because he was in it and still feels the loss that he has left.

Today is the 69th birthday of the activist Gilbert Baker. I first learned of his exceptional contributions to the world through Randy Shilts' book and was happy to see him get more exposure through Dustin Lance Black's miniseries.

The Closing Argument    A 2-hour audio book that brings the racial and sexual politics of the Chronic Fatigue Syndrome epidemic out of the closet. Listen to The Closing Argument now on Amazon and at Audible  On Amazon On Audible in the USA On Audible in the U.K. On Audible in France On Audible in Germany This bold, uncompromising book is the Uncle Tom's Cabin of the AIDS and chronic fatigue syndrome epidemics. It's one of those books that will inspire you to think outside of the box. Destined to be a controversial independent film, The Closing Argument is a provocative courtroom novella about an African-American man who is tried in Connecticut for the crime of infecting a woman with HIV, the virus that the American government has declared the official cause of AIDS. In a move that shocks the nation, his attorney puts the government and the AIDS establishment on trial and tries to convince the jury that everything the public has been told about the nature of the AIDS and CFS epidemics is both racist and homophobic. The author makes you the jury and you have to decide from the attorney's closing argument if you can believe anything you've been told about AIDS, chronic fatigue syndrome, HIV and HHV-6. This is the first work of fiction in history to focus on the cover-up of the devastating virus HHV-6 which has now been linked to many diseases in addition to AIDS and chronic fatigue syndrome. Nicholas Regush, former producer at ABC News called the book "Eye-popping reading if you dare to expand your scope of thinking about AIDS and justice." From 1980 until 1997, Charles Ortleb was the publisher and editor-in-chief of New York Native which Wikipedia describes as "the only gay paper in New York during the early part of the AIDS epidemic" which "pioneered reporting on the AIDS epidemic when others ignored it." On May 18, 1981, New York Native published the world's very first report on the disease that would become known as AIDS. In his book, And the Band Played On, Randy Shilts described the New York Native coverage of the epidemic as being "singularly thorough" and "voluminous." In Rolling Stone, David Black said that New York Native deserved a Pulitzer prize for its AIDS coverage. In an interview in New York Press, Nicholas Regush, a producer for ABC News and a reporter for Montreal Gazette, said that New York Native did "an astounding job" in its coverage of AIDS and credited it with "educating him early on." In a profile titled "The Outsider" in Rolling Stone in 1988, Katie Leishman wrote that "It is undeniable that many major AIDS stories were Ortleb's months and sometimes years before mainstream journalists took them up. Behind the scenes he exercises an enormous unacknowledged influence on the coverage of the medical story of the century." In addition to pioneering the coverage of AIDS, New York Native was the only publication in the world to have a reporter, Neenyah Ostrom, who provided weekly coverage of the emergence of the epidemic of chronic fatigue syndrome and its scientific and political relationship to AIDS. Hillary Johnson, in her groundbreaking history of chronic fatigue syndrome, Osler's Web, wrote that "Ortleb, in fact, increasingly suspected the AIDS outbreak was merely a modest subset of the more pervasive, immune-damaging epidemic disease claiming heterosexuals--chronic fatigue syndrome." The breaking news about chronic fatigue syndrome and HHV-6 these days seems to suggest that much of New York Native's controversial take on the relationship between AIDS, chronic fatigue syndrome and HHV-6 is being vindicated.       Listen to "The Lady Upstairs," the album on Spotify inspired by The Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Epidemic Cover-up. Lyrics by Charles Ortleb. Music and performance by Chris Davidson. This album is also available on Amazon, Apple Music, iTunes, Google, and Deezer.

We return for the fourteenth episode of American History Too! to discuss a horrifying and shameful period in US history:  the outbreak and response to the HIV/AIDS crisis during the 1980s.  Academic impartiality is at a premium as we delve into social and cultural reasons behind the US government’s failure to tame the spread of the deadly virus.  We also consider the important cultural touchstones that HIV/AIDS inspired and also the evolution of gay rights in the US. For those interested, the British broadcast about AIDS that begins the show can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9SqRNUUOk7s  The broadcast stood in stark contrast to official US silence on the issue.

TRANSCRIPT We're going to do a follow-up in this Vortex to one we aired a couple of weeks ago about a prominent parish here in Detroit, the National Shrine of the Little Flower, and most specifically, its schools. As a quick refresher, a big LGBTQIA+ issue broke out there when some parents complained about a long-term teacher having put up a poster of Harvey Milk in her classroom. Harvey Milk has become an icon in the homosexual community because he (along with Mayor George Moscone) was gunned down by Dan White while serving on the San Francisco Board of Supervisors. White did not assassinate Milk or Moscone over anything homosexual, despite the fact that a homosexual newspaper reporter for the San Francisco Chronicle, Randy Shilts, made a gay martyr out of Milk. Shilts later died of AIDS in 1994. As Shilts noted in his biography of Milk, Milk had a penchant, shall we say, for taking homeless teenage males off the streets and into his bed. So why a poster of Milk is up in any Catholic school classroom is a source of wonder. Something's got to give, and, in this case, it was the truth of the Faith. Yet there it is, adorning the wall of a classroom at Shrine Schools, which is what the parents reported to the administration, who then called in the teacher. The teacher said she felt "bullied" and another teacher backed her up. Both teachers resigned and a gay protest happened a couple of weeks later. All of this was completely placated by the pastor, Fr. Joe Horn, who made sure the teachers came back because "why can't we all just get along?" And now you are updated on the background. Now, the follow-up. Realizing that bowing down to the LGBT lobby did not sit well with many in his parish, Fr. Horn has issued a soppy statement that says pretty much nothing. The four paragraphs go pretty much like this: Paragraph one: Although the past few weeks have been difficult, some good things happened here at the parish Paragraph two: We've met with all the faculty; we're all good, and we've asked the archdiocese to give us some guidance to avoid this kind of thing in the future Paragraph three: To the soul-searching series of questions about why Catholic schools exist, Fr. Horn said "to form missionary disciples who joyfully share the message of the gospel and the teachings of Christ's Church to all the world, making a meaningful contribution to the culture. To be clear: Our schools have and will continue to teach the Truth in all its fullness" And paragraph four: Let's all keep praying and look forward in joy It's a wonderful letter that doesn't really say anything directly and tries to dodge the elephant in the room. Father Horn is doing what so many poorly formed clergy are doing: attempting to square the impossible circle of pleasing God and the world at the same time. It can't be done. Those in the Church who do not believe, accept or conform to the Church's teachings aren't really in the Church. They have a history with the Church, but they don't belong to the Church because they reject the Church's teachings. It's kind of like Democrats aren't really Americans because they reject the Constitution. But I digress. This is the giant problem in the Church today — this "big-tent Catholicism," where all are welcome regardless of what you believe or how you live. It's "Fr. Martin Catholicism," and even so-called good bishops don't come out and admit it (and govern accordingly). Fr. Horn's desperate attempt to hold both ends together is futile. Something's got to give, and, in this case, it was the truth of the Faith. That is so abundantly obvious that teachers from around the archdiocese have contacted Church Militant asking, "Why do Fr. Horn's teachers get to get away with propounding their own beliefs but others don't?" One of them even shared the teachers' contract with us that all teachers in the archdiocese of Detroit must sign to teach in the schools. The most relevant part is crystal clear: "Teacher agrees, in the performance of her/his duties under this agreement, not to engage in or to endorse publicly any actions or beliefs contrary to the teachings and standards of the Roman Catholic faith and morality, and conscientiously to provide a Catholic role model for all students." This is not exactly how you square that statement with Fr. Horn's rehiring of teachers who support a poster being on their classroom wall celebrating a pederast whom the homosexual world celebrates as some kind of martyr. But that is the entire crux of this. Nothing else. And it's not exactly clear what Fr. Horn wants the archdiocese to do "in future cases." What future cases? There should never be any cases. The archdiocese already has said what to do; that's what the teachers' contract is. If a teacher doesn't like or agree or support or live by the teachings of the Church, then they shouldn't be around young minds. Period. And certainly not on the Church's dime. Again, Fr. Horn's placating letter to the parish noted the purpose of Catholic schools is "to form missionary disciples who joyfully share the message of the gospel and the teachings of Christ's Church." But that's precisely what did not happen. And now with teachers sympathetic to the homosexual propaganda machine reinstated to please the mob, it certainly won't happen. A poster was put up in a classroom celebrating a homosexual pederast. Period. How precisely does that form joyful missionary disciples? If this has all been one huge misunderstanding, as Fr. Horn vaguely suggested to the protestors, then why not just clear it all up in a jiffy? Why let the teachers issue a statement not actually refuting anything but just talking about "love"? Just answer the question: Do the teachers completely and totally accept the Church's teachings that homosexual acts are disordered and sinful? Yes or no? And why not say so if they do? Father Horn has deftly avoided that point. The teachers have deftly avoided that point. It's the elephant in the room that no one is talking about. Why not have the teachers who resigned and whom Father pandered to in the face of homosexual protesters simply issue a very clear, very public statement affirming their 100% agreement with the Church's teachings? Just answer the question: Do the teachers completely and totally accept the Church's teachings that homosexual acts are disordered and sinful? The teacher who sent us the teachers' contract is ticked off — rightly so — and said this to us when they sent it: I am disgusted and disturbed. Why are some people held to this standard but not others? Contracts should be uniformly enforced unless Horn thinks this is not a violation of paragraph four, in which case, he has bigger problems. And he signs every contract, so he can't claim ignorance ... so he can fear a lawsuit for disparate treatment, holding people to different standards, all the while doing what's convenient and not what's right, that is, upholding Christ's standards. That's the kind of talk, correctly inspired, that means the archdiocesan attorneys are close to being called. The bottom line is that this is very simple. Have the teachers publicly announce their complete support of Church teaching or dismiss them according to the terms of the contract. Why is this so hard? Again, the simple answer is because so many clergy and laity have come to view the Church's teachings as a kind of list of well-intentioned but incorrect guidelines — good perhaps for another day and age, but vastly in need of updating. That's the only logical conclusion anyone could draw here from Fr. Horn's actions in support of the teachers. Either that or, as another concerned party told us, Fr. Horn should be given the nickname Colonel Sanders and should open a KFC because, in the face of the anti-Catholic Church–hate machine, there's a whole lot of chicken there. Father Horn, do the right thing.
