Broadcast Officials in China Censor Gay TV Characters

By Peter Montgomery

Samantha Power, US Ambassador to the United Nations, took 17 other UN ambassadors to see “Fun Home,” the Tony Award-winning play based on Alison Bechdel’s autobiographical novel about growing up as a lesbian with a closeted gay father. Power told Edith Lederer of Associated Press that the play dramatizes issues facing LGBT people “in a way that (U.N.) resolutions and statements never can.” At the UN Women’s Conference in Asia, OutRight regional p…

Soy Story: Atrocious ‘Reporting’ on Insular Religious Groups

By Eli Federman and James Moxness

Multiple news outlets, including the Independent, Huffington Post and Slate, recently linked to a story, originally posted in English on YourJewishNews.com, claiming that a Hasidic group banned soy products because they ‘lead to homosexual sex.’ The problem with this outlandish story was that it was completely unverified; none of the outlets actually interviewed or did any on-the-ground investigation. Ultimately the story was retracted, but the d…

Iowa OKs Gay Marriage, WWCD? (What Will California Do?)

By Bill Berkowitz

The unanimous decision last week by the Iowa Supreme Court allowing same-sex marriage appears to have surprised many same-sex marriage advocates around the country, and no doubt shocked and shook up many Religious Right leaders. A post-ruling joint statement issued by Iowa’s Senate Majority Leader Mike Gronstal and House Speaker Pat Murphy pointed out that the court’s decision is in keeping with that state’s “long history of justice.” “Iowa has a…

By Chrissy Stroop

As the United States prepares for the end of a nightmarish one-term presidency that seemed to drag on forever, Americans continue to unpack the January 6 insurrection that now even soon-to-be Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell admits was “provoked” by President Donald Trump.

Was it the Russians or God? Evangelical Leaders Working Out the Kinks with Trump’s Transition Picks

By Chrissy Stroop

While Donald Trump’s narrow Electoral College victory on November 8 shocked and appalled most of the world, it didn’t take evangelical heavyweight Franklin Graham very long to declare that God himself was involved in the outcome: https://twitter.com/Franklin_Graham/status/796748013846822913 Since election day, however, many commentators, activists, and politicians have become increasingly concerned with a more tangible, demonstrable type of inter…

Dehumanizing Huckabee Tweet Another Echo of Dangerous Tribalism

By Bradley Onishi

There’s a direct line from tribal epistemology to dehumanization and genocide. This morning former governor of Arkansas and avid Trump supporter Mike Huckabee tweeted a picture of gang members and dubbed them Nancy Pelosi’s team “for the take back of the House [of Representatives].” https://twitter.com/GovMikeHuckabee/status/1010497564435730434?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cnn.com%2F2018%2F06%2F23%2Fpolitics%2Fmike-huckabee-ms13-…

Despising the Holidays: When Christians Led the ‘War on Christmas’

By Ed Simon

In the 1640s, during the years of the English civil wars, a popular broadsheet with the title The World Turned Upside Down became the equivalent of a blockbuster. In the chaos of the era print was cheap and plentiful, and the collapse of the licensing laws insured a degree of free speech hitherto unknown in the British Isles. The World Turned Upside Down would prove so enduring that it has been an English folk ballad for more than 350 years. The…

Pretty Girls Like Trap Church: A Movement at 2 Chainz’s Atlanta Pink House

By Anita Little

Last week in Atlanta, Georgia, an unassuming house on 1530 Howell Mill Road that had been painted bright pink in promotion of rapper 2 Chainz’s latest album, “Pretty Girls Like Trap Music,” was whitewashed back to its original eggshell hue. For the past several weeks, the Pink Trap House installation had been a lot of things to different people. A quick search of the #PinkTrapHouse hashtag on Instagram shows it was a major tourist attraction to f…

How a 15th Century Book on Witchcraft Helps Make Sense of Trump’s Bizarre Baby Execution Story

By Karen E. Park

At an otherwise typical rally in Green Bay, Wisconsin, this weekend, Trump deviated from his usual incendiary and demonstrably false talking points in order to outline a grotesque murder fantasy: The baby is born. The mother meets with the doctor. They take care of the baby. They wrap the baby beautifully. And then the doctor and the mother determine whether or not they will execute the baby. As he spoke in a slightly lilting tone, he gently mime…
