Adam Britt’s Equality Ride Journey

Hi y’all!

I am not sure anyone reads this anymore, but I just wanted to give folks a tiny update about what i am up to currently.

Right now I am doing a lot of work with a local non profit group, The Center for Artistic Revolution, CAR. I have working with them for quite a while now and owe more to this group than I will ever be able to return. If everyone could check out the website and sign up for the e-mailing list, that would be great and you would be able to keep up to date with all of CAR’s news.

Thanks!

Love,

Today we had a sit-in at The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, where Albert Mohler is president. Albert Mohler is the president of the school, on the board for Focus on the Family and many many people look up to him as an evangelical leader. He is the person who made the outrageous statements that if we could find a genetic marker for “gay”, that he would support hormone therapy on the un-born child, to “fix” the baby of the gay. He is supporting eugenics and the genocide of an entire people (Nazi Germany anyone…) and is incredibly immoral.

We made a surprise visit to the administration building on campus, no one knew we were coming and the media knew 10 minutes before we got there. We staged a sit-in in the lobby, demanding that Mohler retract his comments and sincerely apologize for the terrible things he said. After 1.5 hours of sitting in, 12 Riders were arrested and we spent the rest of the day in silent vigil outside the school and eventually holding signs with many community members. Angel is still in jail and we have no idea when he will get out.

It’s late; I will come back to this in the morning and fill it in.
