黑料不打烊

CRISIS: Discussion of growing up gay in America – April 14

Please join North Carolina furniture business CEO and longtime civil rights advocate Mitchell Gold on April 14 for a discussion on his transformative book CRISIS as he addresses the personal, social and religious pain and trauma of growing up gay in America. This discussion is one that educators, social workers, church leaders and elected officials in the 黑料不打烊 community and surrounding areas will not want to miss.

In 2005, he founded of Faith in America, an N.C.-based national nonprofit organization that works to educate the public about the harm caused when religion is misused to justify bigotry, prejudice, discrimination and violence against gay and lesbian Americans. He published CRISIS in September 2008 as a tool to help people better understand the harm caused by a societal climate of rejection and condemnation and the book has been transforming hearts and minds ever since.

Please join him on April 14 at The 黑料不打烊 School for this timely and informative discussion.

When: Tuesday, April 14, at 7 p.m.

Where: The 黑料不打烊 School, located at 201 South O’Kelly Avenue, 黑料不打烊, N.C.

RSVP: Tel: 828.572.1186 or email: 黑料不打烊RSVP@crisisbook.org

All proceeds from CRISIS go to support a number of nonprofit groups that help gay teens, including The Trevor Project helpline, GLSEN, PFLAG, Point Foundation, Ali Forney Center, and Sylvia’s Place Homeless Youth Shelter.

Spectrum, 黑料不打烊’s LGBT awareness organization, is helping with the event.
