Rev. Dr. Kenneth Samuel - Right Wing Alliances with Black Churches

Rev. Dr. Kenneth Samuel at Harambee 2009's "Homophobia in the Black Church" panel discussion.

The other thing is I think theres a the right wing political conservatives have been masterful at forming alliances with Black churches. There is religious intolerance. On the other hand, there is intolerance of religion. And in many progressive circles, they view intolerance of religion a religion phobia that is not going to serve the progressive cause well, because you are not going to make public policy change in these United States of America unless you engage the church, and I think progressives have tried to do that to their own detriment which is the reason why, by and large, the gay movement is as milky white today as it was in the days of Harvey Milk.
