Speaking With Queer Kid Of Color

We Debate The Use of the Word "Nigger", HIV Controversies, Being Gay & Conservative, And The Bible

I am late on this train. When QueerKidOfColor approached me for an interview for his blogging series, I barely knew who he was, but apparently he is a rising star in the gay media. That's hot and I can dig it. I love to see a young black gay male doing big things.

However, as much as I like the Queer Kid, that hasn't stopped us from having several disagreements within the first conversations of getting to know one another.

In case you haven't already read it, there is a two part interview (Part One & Part Two) up on his blog. We discuss several issues we've both been ready to address with each other such as my "vulgarities", his conservatism, the whole backlash concerning Jamal K. Franklin's knowledge about the blogger knowingly spreading HIV, and homosexuality in the Bible.

When he received backlash for some of his comments, he decided to completely take down my interview. Now y'all know I had to say somethin' about that! His point of view is that he's in the media hotseat now so he has to watch what he says. My stance is that you should be truthful to yourself and your ideals no matter what. And if you say some things in ignorance, then you must realize it and change the situation.

After removing the second part of the interview, it has returned to its place back on his blog and you know want to read this shit! Yes, I said shit! Yes, that is profanity!

Now tell me something good.
