Putting Driscoll on the list of Seattle’s “Predators and Prophets” might be more inflammatory than informative, but it goes to show t…

Gay, Black, and Quaker: History Catches Up with Bayard Rustin

By Leigh Eason

…ted States. But, in part at his own request, his name was omitted from the list of authors, a “regret[table] failure” that was rectified only in 2010 by a minute of the AFSC Board restoring his name to that list. Martin Luther King relied on Rustin’s advice and expertise, but that did not always insulate the committed activist (or his role in the movement) from the climate of the time.

…e Williams Jennings Bryan,” the late 19th-century Democrat and fervent populist who also had a penchant for gold. To his credit (and our panic), Bannon was surprisingly straightforward about his ideological goals for the next four years.

By Amanda Robb

…ick up things on her daughter’s off-to-college list, when a DJ on her easy-listening radio station cut it to say there had been a shooting at the high school.

…e will use this principle to turn his life around. He puts together a long list of wrongs committed and begins the process of correcting for past, harmful behavior.

By Peter Laarman

…the 1930s, but Carl Henry was not really a force to be reckoned with prior to the 1940s and 1950s. Moreover, Carl Henry’s beliefs were immediately understood to be contaminated by the same poisons that had fatally tainted Fundamentalism: i.e., a rigid view of biblical inerrancy (including a literalist view of the miracle stories), insistence that mere individual conversion fulfills God’s will, complete acceptance of the old patriarchal frame, etc…

By Anita Little

…ldn’t even bother to spell all the names of the slain black Americans they list correctly.) Then, finally, they devote the lengthiest section to religious freedom. The letter reads, “A well-financed war is now being waged by the gay and lesbian community in the US and abroad on the faith of our ancestors.” What? They go on to say that it’s insulting to the memory of black civil rights leaders to compare their movement to the one for LGBT rights, a…

Conservatives Stand Together for Anti-Gay Bigotry

By Sarah Posner

…t alone would have been enough for the SPLC to add FRC to its “hate group” list. Perkins, though, denied the group would be working to “re-criminalize homosexual behavior.” He then portrayed the FRC’s work as combatting the “attempt to. . . enshrine homosexual behavior as some protected class.” Potok emphasized that the SPLC’s decision to place a group on the list is not about criminality or violence, but is based on whether the groups in questi…
