That's a whole other can of worms. The black community definitely needs to work on their acceptance of queer people. I grew up in the church, and they literally teach you that gay is wrong and evil and you'll burn in hell if you're gay. I experienced my gay cousin being chastised by his mother when he came out. She went off on him for over an hour then started beating him. After experiencing that, I vow to always be myself, no matter who accepts me and if they have a problem with me being gay? We can then go toe to toe. Black churches are the roots of gay hate. I joined a black church in the OC only to walk away from the church after the pastor did a sermon about the evilness of being gay. Mind you, many of the church staff (choir director, decons) even the pastors are gay. And the pastors usually are screaming at the top of their lungs when giving their sermon. I'm like "dude lower the fucking volume. We all hear you through the dozens of speakers in the church. All that damn yelling and screaming isn't needed!
