Tampa Bay Rays Pride Night + LGBTQIA+ Rights - a podcast by Kyle
from 2022-06-10T07:14
On today's episode, we discuss the story of the 5 Rays Pitchers who chose to not wear Pride Night Logos on their jerseys, citing "faith". I examine the history of faith and denying rights to LGBTQIA+ people, the players making statements answering to their decision, and some of the commonly held misconceptions of "lifestyle choices". We also look into the backgrounds of these pitchers and the "groupthink" perpetuated by people from similar types of backgrounds. We also discuss real LGBTQIA+ issues instead of harping on the straightforward solution the Rays can learn from this debacle. Reporting for this story comes in part from Tampa Bay Times: Most, but not all, Rays show their LGBTQ+ support and 5 Tampa Bay Rays players decline to wear LGBTQ Pride-themed jerseys
