SAGE News Clips: Intersection of LGBT and Islam
Description: After the shooting massacre at the gay nightclub Pulse in Orlando, Florida, we hear from a gay imam and two other Muslim individuals regarding their queer and religious identity. Gay imam Daayiee Abdullah reminds the viewer that religion and queer identities are not separate but work in an intersectional way. There are so few spaces for queer Muslims and so connecting to as many allies as possible is something the Muslim community is looking to do.
