ALICIA WALLACE: The right voices need to be in the room and must be speaking for everybody
LAST week, I moderated the second session in the Commonwealth Foundation’s Critical Conversation series. The event, entitled “Young Leaders Speak,” was a collaboration with the Queen’s Commonwealth Trust and Commonwealth Youth Council and brought young people together to talk about their leadership experience, activism and demands of Commonwealth institutions.
ALICIA WALLACE: What does the Pride flag flying really say to you?
Yesterday was the first day of Pride Month which is not only a celebration of sexual diversity and community, but a set of activities that assert the humanity of LGBTQI+ people and a direct response to the shaming and oppression carried out against them.

This country is full of bigoted, homophobic, Christian in name only nuts like this letter writer. No wonder the embassy hoisted that flag!

If you believe what MEN wrote in the bible (simplistic book that it is), then you are truly ignorant. "God", or whatever you want to call the power you feel is responsible for your well being, surely does not need any representatives here on Earth. So worship what you want but know that ALL people pretending to represent this being here on earth, are charlatans. That includes everyone you mention at your Church.

It's great when the uneducated self-identify so the rest of us can safely ignore their unfounded opinions. Continue to let people know so they can keep away from you.

"When you're accustomed to privilege, equality feels like oppression." Get over yourself. No one is doing anything in your face unless you live on the embassy property and no one is bullying you. You sound like a child and you should grow up.

Good on the US Embassy, Alicia Wallace, and Equality Bahamas!
Imagine being so morally bankrupt or historically ignorant to be a black person or a woman who is against treating people like human beings. Let's do better Bahamas.

This really shows that Christianity is a thing of the past - to which I totally agree. There cannot be a God if he can make so many mistakes with people's gender; after all it's obvious that He got it wrong with millions of people.
It also shows the idea of marriage is out-the-window. You no longer have to be married in order to start a family and have children etc. and sex is no longer for procreation - it's for enjoyment! Yay to that.
Our world is spinning on its head now! Those old beliefs and standards are gone! Is it good or bad? I don't think it's either - it's just part of the evolution of the human race. Will it help us, as a species advance? Maybe. Will it lead to our demise? Maybe. We'll have to wait and see.
Enjoy the new normal... and don't get your panties in a twist over it.
