<p>CLGS is pleased to welcome the Rev. Dr. Patrick S. Cheng to the PSR campus on Thursday evening, April 28, 2011, to deliver the fourth annual John E. Boswell Lecture. Join us that evening at 5:30pm for a reception in the PSR Chapel; the lecture will begin at 6:30pm. This event is free and open to the public.</p>
<p>Dr. Cheng&#8217;s lecture &#8212; &#8220;The Rainbow Connection: Bridging Asian American and Queer Theologies &#8212; will help to mark and celebrate an emerging queer religious scholarship among Asian Pacific Islander communities.</p>
<p>As Dr. Cheng describes it:<br />
&#8220;Rainbows have long served as bridges between different worlds: heaven and earth; east and west; queer and non-queer.  In this lecture, I will suggest that the emergence of LGBTQ Asian Pacific Islander theological voices in recent years has created a hybrid space – or bridge – between Asian American and queer theologies.  It is in this &#8216;rainbow space&#8217; that previously-silenced connections between sexualities, gender identities, and races can emerge, and thus challenge and transform the dominant theological discourse.&#8221;</p>
<p>The Rev. Dr. Patrick S. Cheng is the Assistant Professor of Historical and Systematic Theology at the Episcopal Divinity School in Cambridge, Massachusetts.  He holds a Ph.D., M.Phil., and M.A. from Union Theological Seminary in New York, a J.D. from Harvard Law School, and a B.A. from Yale College.  Patrick is a contributor to the Huffington Post on LGBT theological issues, and he is an ordained minister with the Metropolitan Community Churches.  He is the founder and coordinator of Queer Asian Spirit, a world-wide online community of LGBT people of Asian descent and their allies who are interested in issues of spirituality and religion.  Patrick is the author of Radical Love: An Introduction to Queer Theology (New York: Seabury Books, 2011).  He has contributed chapters to The Queer Bible Commentary as well as the second edition of Sexuality and the Sacred.  His writings have been published in Semeia, Spiritus, and the Journal of Feminist Studies in Religion. Patrick lives in Cambridge, Massachusetts, with his husband Michael, and they have been together for almost twenty years.  For more information, <a href="http://www.patrickcheng.net">see Patrick’s website</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>On Sunday, May 3rd, 2009, at the 50th annual Buena Vista United Methodist Church Bazaar in Alameda, CA, the Network on Religion and Justice for API LGBTs (NRJ) launched the <em>One Big Family</em> photo solidarity project.</p>
<p>In partnership with Buena Vista UMC&#8217;s Reconciling Ministry, NRJ hosted a booth at the Bazaar. Nestled between the hot tea tent and the chicken teriyaki ticket booth, we invited attendees to stand in solidarity with LGBTQ people by taking their picture holding a sign that read, &#8220;I am Christian and I stand in solidarity with LGBTQ people&#8221; or another solidarity message of their choice.</p>
<p>Buena Vista United Methodist Church voted to be a reconciling church in 2006. The BVUMC community was excited about the opportunity to show solidarity for LGBTQ people. See their pictures below:</p>

<p>&#8220;Reverend Dr. Jeffrey Kuan, a respected pastor and biblical scholar, has long been a visible advocate for LGBT equality in churches and society. Beginning in the early 1990s, Dr. Kuan has been teaching against the misuse of biblical texts towards lesbian and gay Christians.  He served as an expert witness both in the investigation of the Sacramento 68, a group of United Methodist clergy, who co-officiated the holy union of a lesbian couple, and in the church trial of a lesbian clergy in Seattle. Rev. Kuan has marched and spoken out publicly in rallies and press conferences, as an Asian Pacific Islander clergy in support of LGBT equality and marriage.&#8221;</p>

<p>San Francisco&#8217;s night time Lunar New Year Parade took place on the evening of February 7, 2009. API Equality took the lead in organizing and the theme was &#8220;Asian Pacific Islanders for Marriage Equality.&#8221; The weather was warm (no rain!) and we had about 75 people show up and march with us. </p>
<p>A religious contingent with folks from GRACE, Pine Church, NRJ-API-LGBT, PANA and more came out to march in support lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender APIs in the San Francisco Chinese New Year Parade.</p>
<p>This was the fifth year that the API LGBT Community and our allies are marched in the Chinese New Year Parade.  We show the world that there are LGBT API people in our community and that we support marriage equality.</p>
<p>Some of the participating organizations include API Family Pride, API Legal Outreach, Asian Law Caucus, API Queer Women &amp; Transgender Coalition, API Wellness Center, Gay Asian Pacific Alliance, Network for Religion and Justice for API LGBT People, Our Family Coalition, PANA Institute and UC Berkeley Queer and Asian.</p>

<p>200 Supporters of Gay &amp; Lesbian Community March in 2009 Los Angeles Chinatown New Year&#8217;s Parade</p>
<p>Contingent Organized by API Equality-LA Draws Record Participation</p>
<p>Los Angeles – On Saturday, January 31, 2009, a record 200 people joined the API Equality-LA contingent in the Golden Dragon Parade in Los Angeles’ Chinatown, one of the city’s most popular community event.  Saturday marked only the fourth time in the parade’s 110-year history that a contingent representing and supporting lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) members of the Asian and Pacific Islander (API) community has participated in the parade. <br /> <br />“We expected a strong turnout after all of the energy in our community since the November 2008 election, but we were absolutely astounded to welcome 200 participants – nearly three times as many as last year!” said Ericson Herbas, API Equality-LA steering committee member and one of the organizers of the contingent.  “Particularly meaningful for all of us, we were also joined this year by same-sex couples who had been able to legally marry before November 2008.”<br /> <br />Wearing bright red t-shirts, the large contingent marched proudly through the streets of Chinatown, carrying banners displaying the six colors of the rainbow.  The rainbow is commonly used to represent the pride of the LGBT community and was chosen by the API Equality-LA contingent to also represent the diversity of the coalition’s membership and supporters. <br /> <br />&#8220;Our participation in the lunar new year parade each year sends a powerful message of pride, diversity and inclusion,” said Marshall Wong, API Equality-LA co-chair.  “Saturday was a wonderful way to enter the Year of the Ox.  It is said that the Ox is a sign of prosperity through fortitude and hard work.  Fortitude and hard work describe exactly what we need to win back the freedom to marry for the LGBT community.  Today we took a short stroll around Chinatown but we’re committed to the long march to full equality.”<br /> <br />The contingent was led by a drum troupe playing traditional Korean drums, comprised of volunteers from the Koreatown Immigrant Workers Alliance (KIWA).  And bringing up the rear of the API Equality-LA contingent was Danza Méxica Cuauhtemoc, a cultural troupe performing traditional Aztec dances, accompanied by Aztec drums and dressed in traditional Aztec clothes and tall feather headdresses.   <br /> <br />“API Equality-LA was thrilled to be able to include both Korean and Aztec drums as well as Aztec dancers,” said Eileen Ma, another API Equality-LA steering committee member and organizer of the contingent.  “For us, the drummers and dancers reinforced our message of pride in our diversity as a community.”<br /> <br />The diversity of the marchers was also evident in the organizations that officially joined the API Equality-LA contingent, many of whom proudly displayed their own organizational banners as part of the contingent.  In addition to API Equality-LA, other organizations who participated in the contingent included: Asian Pacific American Legal Center (APALC); Asian Pacific Health Care Venture (APHCV); Asian Pacific Islander Parents, Families and Friends of Lesbians and Gays (API PFLAG); ); California Faith for Equality; Chinese Progressive Association (CPA) of San Gabriel Valley; Equal Roots Coalition; Gays United Network (Gays U.N.); Japanese American Citizens League (JACL); Koreatown Immigrant Workers Alliance (KIWA); Little Tokyo Service Center (LTSC); Love Honor Cherish; OCA-Greater Los Angeles; South Asian Network (SAN); and Asian Pacific Islander Pride Council, which includes Asian American Queer Women Activists (AAQWA), Asian Pacific AIDS Intervention Team (APAIT), Chinese Rainbow Association, Gay Asian Pacific Support Network (GAPSN), and Satrang. </p>
