Description |
A conversation between Heather White and Anthony Petro regarding the history of religion, sexuality, and lesbian and gay politics in the United States. Religion often seems to be at odds with sex and to hinder political movements for LGBT equality. White and Petro discuss the religious history of gay rights, the AIDS crisis, and the politics of sexuality. They explore the queer history of American Christianity alongside the religious history of gay liberation, the persisting culture wars, and the future of sexual freedom in the age of Trump.
Stephen Prothero, Chair of BU's Department of Religion, will introduce the panelists. |
