Dear my fellow comrades,
Happy Father's day!
I am certain that, by the great mercies and favor of the ever-loving and everlasting Father, He will sustain our physical and spiritual well being and unity as one body and one unique community. These we can never be denied off. In fact out of the dark we will end up shinning like the morning star.
I remember the last time I checked, a section of our beloved community, the precious ‘gay brotherhood’ were being lynched crudely, and unfairly, in the guise of cleansing evil deeds, and outing gay people from the community. Another had written in the daily Nation newspaper on the 27th of February in a small comment, that homosexuality and abortion are satanic by all religious standards.
First of all, I want to acknowledge that we are greater than all the hullabaloo and hypocrisy that is eating up into our space. We can never be auctioned or be faced out. I think it is high time that my brothers and sisters from the other side get the hell out of, our meticulous advancement. When will they ever understand that they are just wasting their energy and time trying to change us?
The religious bigotry and societal tirades that have been brought against us are of no use and meaning. They are demeaning and don’t add value or a single strand of hair on our heads, nor does it threaten our existences. It only seeks to deny us of a respectable and humanitarian operational space. I believe in God and I know He loves me the way I am. I also believe in family values, that’s where I was raised. So, what has it to do with my sexual orientation?
We have done both justice and injustice to ourselves, this is in equal measures, using all available resources to seduce and justify our existence to the heterosexual world. They are just slippery people with selfish interests. I don’t believe that, from the onset we should be forced to justify ourselves, because we are, and we shall be, world without end.
We have been mused as scarecrows to the kids, yet we are just exercising the rights of our existence. If I was hetero I would comfortably live and practice heterosexuality without bothering those around me. As a gay person I want the same space accorded to me. I can’t allow myself to be boxed into pseudo-sexuality of sorts of which the repercussions are unbearable.
Members of my brotherhood, the journey seems to be too long but the fruits of a well groomed tree will be eventually tasteful and bearing. Do not despair, just hung in there, for the joy of a successful struggle will last forever more.
I want to bid you a ceaseless bye and wish all of us an eventful and pragmatic period. We are a chosen generation full of transmogrification.
Finally, Martin Luther King Jr said in his quote that; ‘the hope of a secure and livable world lies with disciplined nonconformists who are dedicated to justice, peace and brotherhood.’ And like Abraham Lincoln, I hope to stand firm enough to not go backward and yet not to go forward fast enough to wreck the gay community’s cause.
