"Soulforce" needs to be looked at clearly, not just commended automatically, by queers who may not be aware of some serious problems with this group. I am still investigating their mysterious funding. Meanwhile, commited queer activists must look at (1) this prosletyzing group's obscene and perverse highjacking of dr. King's specific use of the term "soulforce." MLK did not crawl into racist churches & beg them to love black folk! His soulforce was a source of rightheous strength drawn from, and for, black churches & their progressive supporters. Civil rights are a struggle, not a beauty contest.(2) civil disobedience doesn't mean cooperating with cops, like soulforce does, willingly walking into arrest after a so-called die-in. No -- Real pacifists are willing, like christians and others, to offer their bodies to dragging, beating, or death by cops, while putting up no resistance. This is what dr. King's people did. (3) it's also insulting to non-religious diehard activists to suggest that magical thinking is the way & the light, when in fact queer rights must be demanded, not wimpered for. Kirmyra w.
