Last night, we held our first training for members of CSE’s Action Team. Thanks so much to Paul Choi, Rachelle Sorensen-Cox, Heather Laine Talley, Marcie Walker, Michael Holcombe, and Lee Crayton for sharing their evening and for their readiness to take action through CSE’s Coming Out Campaign. Thanks also to First Congregational Church of Asheville, which provided space for the training.
Through this campaign, LGBT people and allies will be coming out in new ways in the South in order to 1) resist the pressure to stay closeted or covered and 2) send a simple message: this is our home and we are unwavering in our commitment to full equality. CSE will provide direct legal, emotional and spiritual support to people as they take this courageous action.
If you would like to be part of CSE’s actions, come to a Family Dinner or complete this form. Our next Action Team trainings will be on August 4 and 21. Email southernequality@gmail.com for more information.
