Why am I on the Equality Ride?

The title is my answer.

I'm committed to the 2010 Soulforce Equality Ride because it saddens me that people use the Bible, any sacred text really, to discriminate, hate, oppress, marginalize, ostracize, and murder any other human being.

It makes me sad. It makes me sick and nauseous. It makes me angry.

Sometimes I picture myself crying at the feet of a crowd, begging for them to love me. If only that would move people to discard the lies they were raised to embrace and guard as truths...I would weep without pride, without restraint.

I will be blogging my journey here...please feel free to leave me little love notes...they will treasured along the way :)
