I’m a cis-het white guy so, don’t exactly have direct personal experience. However, having studied a bit on the subject in university in the 00s and have tried to better learn (and unlearn things from growing up in a small town).
Here’s based upon what I know:
It is not just the frequency of conservative Christianity in POC communities. It is also being a member of another group with a history being targeted for violent repression. So, it’s not just the societal institutional racism at play. It’s also the societal institutional homophobia, and the conservative christian homophobia, and the homophobia from any other root cause in their POC community, and the other risks that gay men are subjected to just by existing.
Is that due to how entrenched devout Christianity is in communities of color?
