CAMPUS VOICES: Why I wear the rainbow bELONg button
(10/12/16 2:51am)
I'm one of the Associate Chaplains at Elon University and an ordained American Baptist minister. If you know me, you know that I'm almost always wearing an Elon baseball cap. I like baseball caps, and I have light sensitivity — bright fluorescent lights often give me headaches — so I always have my cap with me. When HB2 passed in North Carolina last Spring, I started wearing the rainbow bELONg pin on my cap as a show of personal solidarity for LGBTQIA persons hurt by this discriminatory bill.
