Nor is it easy being homosexual and black ...

Memphian Rev. William Owens (founder and president of the Coalition of African-American Pastors--CAAP) is quoted in an article ("At Conservative Black Colleges, Gays Struggle To Find Their Voice") about difficulties faced in organizing folks-who-like-same-sex-sex on Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs). I think it's interesting to note, as Owens implies, that Political Correctness is less restrictive of Black Americans' speaking their mind and living their convictions.

"But just as gay students can rightfully request campus inclusion, so too can Black college administrators deny it, argues the Rev. William Owens, an HBCU graduate and head of the Coalition of African-American Pastors in Memphis, Tenn.

Those administrators may cite the Bible, or simply personal beliefs — and they don’t have to be politically correct, he says.

"They can say ‘no’ and I don’t think they have to give a lot of reasons,” says Owens, who joined other Black pastors worried that, along with dismal marriage rates, socially accepted homosexuality “is a threat to the Black family.”"

Keep on keepin' on Rev. Owens.
