Download or read book The LGBTQIA Community and Betrayal written by K.B. Lewis Lewis and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2024-01-23 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about how the lgbtqia community have BETRAYED the heterosexual community and how they want to ERASE HETEROSEXUALITY and SILENCE, CENSOR AND BULLY STRAIGHT PEOPLE INTO THE “CLOSET”. It’s about REVENGE and a takeover over of the predominantly heterosexual society and replacing it with a dominant homosexual or the lgbtqia version of society. The lgbtqia community started out by asking the heterosexual community for TOLERANCE and once we gave them that, then they ask the heterosexual community for EQUALITY and once we gave them that, then they found themselves being too much like the heterosexual community, so they started a rebellion against the heterosexual community because they didn’t want to be just like the heterosexual community because they felt as if they losing their homosexual identity, because that’s was who they were. So they distance themselves from the heterosexual community and in doing so they rejected everything that had to do with heterosexuality and favored homosexuality. Which in turned cause many (not all) in the lgbtqia community to become HETEROPHOBIA. Meaning that they “HATE” anything that has to do with heterosexuality. Therefore they wanted to make heterosexuals more like them (homosexual) and that’s what we have have growing in America culture and society today. This is a BETRAYAL from the lgbtqia community, and it’s time for the heterosexual community to take a stand and push back against the ‘over corrected’ lgbtqia community and rein them in before they ERASE HETEROSEXUALITY into EXTINCTION. This book is also about checks and balances and no one to this point has put a check on the lgbtqia community because they are too afraid of “alphabet mob’s” vicious attacks. These lgbtqia attacks are intentionally vicious and intended to silence and censor the heterosexual community from pushing back and defending themselves. Also, it gives the lgbtqia community the unchecked and unchallenged power and authority to ‘erase’ and tear down heterosexuality at will and replace it with the lgbtqia homosexuality and their version and ways of thinking over and give heterosexuals no voice or representation. I wrote this book because the lgbtqia community has ‘betrayed’ the trust of the heterosexual community. They are taking heterosexual away parents rights. They are recruiting and indoctrinating our children and they are trying to ‘bully’ us in the “closet”. I tired of not being able to voice and express my opinion, that I’m entitled to, just like millions of other heterosexuals. I feel that someone has to step up and speak up in order to preserve our heterosexual freedom from these oppressions that the lgbtqia community has put on us. They are discriminatory, disrespectful and dishonest towards the heterosexual community. Someone has to be the fact checker. I believe that I am qualified because of my previous two books that fact check the feminist and the women’s movement.

Download or read book The Lavender Scare written by David K. Johnson and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2023-03-22 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new edition of a classic work of history, revealing the anti-homosexual purges of midcentury Washington. In The Lavender Scare, David K. Johnson tells the frightening story of how, during the Cold War, homosexuals were considered as dangerous a threat to national security as Communists. Charges that the Roosevelt and Truman administrations were havens for homosexuals proved a potent political weapon, sparking a “Lavender Scare” more vehement and long-lasting than Joseph McCarthy’s Red Scare. Drawing on declassified documents, years of research in the records of the National Archives and the FBI, and interviews with former civil servants, Johnson recreates the vibrant gay subculture that flourished in midcentury Washington and takes us inside the security interrogation rooms where anti-homosexual purges ruined the lives and careers of thousands of Americans. This enlarged edition of Johnson’s classic work of history—the winner of numerous awards and the basis for an acclaimed documentary broadcast on PBS—features a new epilogue, bringing the still-relevant story into the twenty-first century.

Download or read book Messy Grace written by Caleb Kaltenbach and published by WaterBrook. This book was released on 2015-10-20 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sometimes, grace gets messy. Caleb Kaltenbach was raised by LGBT parents, marched in gay pride parades as a youngster, and experienced firsthand the hatred and bitterness of some Christians toward his family. But then Caleb surprised everyone, including himself, by becoming a Christian…and a pastor. Very few issues in Christianity are as divisive as the acceptance of the LGBT community in the church. As a pastor and as a person with beloved family members living a gay lifestyle, Caleb had to face this issue with courage and grace. Messy Grace shows us that Jesus’s command to “love your neighbor as yourself” doesn’t have an exception clause for a gay “neighbor”—or for that matter, any other “neighbor” we might find it hard to relate to. Jesus was able to love these people and yet still hold on to his beliefs. So can you. Even when it’s messy. “Messy Grace is an important contribution to the conversation about sexual identity for churches and leaders. Caleb's story is surprising and unique, and he weaves it together compellingly. He states his views clearly, leaves room for disagreement, and champions love no matter where you are in this conversation.” —Jud Wilhite, Sr. Pastor, Central Christian Church

Book excerpt: PAPERBACK ORIGINAL A stunning new photobook featuring more than fifty portraits of children brought up by gay parents in America, sixth in a groundbreaking series that looks at LGBTQ communities around the world Judges, academics, and activists keep wondering how children are impacted by having gay parents. Maybe it’s time to ask the kids. For the past four years, award-winning photographer Gabriela Herman, whose mother came out when Herman was in high school and was married in one of Massachusetts’ first legal same-sex unions, has been photographing and interviewing children and young adults with one or more parent who identify as lesbian, gay, trans, or queer. Building on images featured in a major article for the New York Times Sunday Review and The Guardian and working with the Colage organization, the only national organization focusing on children with LGBTQ parents, The Kids brings a vibrant energy and sensitivity to a wide range of experiences. Some of the children Herman photographed were adopted, some conceived by artificial insemination. Many are children of divorce. Some were raised in urban areas, other in the rural Midwest and all over the map. These parents and children juggled silence and solitude with a need to defend their families on the playground, at church, and at holiday gatherings. This is their story. The Kids was designed by Emerson, Wajdowicz Studios (EWS).

Download or read book The Tribe written by Ben Cobley and published by Andrews UK Limited. This book was released on 2021-01-20 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Islamist terror to feminist equal pay campaigns and the apparent Brexit hate crime epidemic, identity politics seems to be everywhere nowadays. This is not entirely an accident. The progressive liberal-left, which dominates our public life, has taken on the politics of race, gender, religion and sexuality as a key part of its own group identity - and has used its dominance to embed them into our state and society. In The Tribe, Ben Cobley guides us around the 'system of diversity' which has resulted, exploring the consequences of offering favour and protection to some people but not others based on things like skin colour and gender. He looks at how this system has almost totally captured the Labour Party and is spreading relentlessly around our other major institutions. He also looks at how it is capturing our language, appropriating key terms like 'equality', 'tolerance' and 'inclusion', while denying a voice to those who do not play along. The system of diversity makes a challenge to us all: submit, or risk exclusion from society itself.

Download or read book A War of Loves written by David Bennett and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2018-11-13 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At 14, David Bennett came out to his parents. At 19, he encountered Jesus Christ. At that moment, his life changed forever. As a young gay man, David Bennett saw Christianity as an enemy to freedom for LGBTQI people, and his early experiences with prejudice and homophobia led him to become a gay activist. But when Jesus came into his life in a highly unexpected way, he was led down a path he never would have predicted or imagined. In A War of Loves, David recounts his dramatic story, from his early years exploring new age religions and French existentialism to his university experiences as an activist. Following supernatural encounters with God, he embarked on a journey not only of seeking to reconcile his faith and sexuality but also of discovering the higher call of Jesus Christ. A War of Loves investigates what the Bible teaches about sexuality and demonstrates the profligate, unqualified grace of God for all people. David describes the joy and intimacy he found in following Jesus Christ and how love has taken on a radically new and far richer meaning for him.

Download or read book Lesbian Gay Bisexual and Trans People LGBT and the Criminal Justice System written by Charlotte Knight and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-05-23 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the experiences of lesbian, gay, bisexual and trans (LGBT) communities as victims, offenders and staff within the criminal justice system. It draws on both emerging and existing LGBT research and campaigns to identify and explore issues relevant to the criminal justice system, including: agencies of the criminal justice system, victimisation, domestic violence and abuse, transgender experiences, LGBT people as offenders, international perspectives and the personal experiences of LGBT people. Charlotte Knight and Kath Wilson trace the legislative journey toward equal treatment before and after the Wolfenden Report. They consider why, for example, lesbians are over represented on death row in the US, how the prosecution characterises them and what part homophobia might play in offending and in sentencing. They raise important questions about the causes of, and responses to, same-sex domestic violence and abuse and how the system delivers justice to trans people. Sodomy laws and the treatment of LGBT people worldwide are also considered and models of good practice are offered. Their insights will be of interest to practitioners, policy makers and scholars of the criminal justice system, particularly those concerned with the rights of LGBT communities.
