I have to say that everyone is entitled to change, especially if it is for the better. Unfortunately my own humanity has made me a bit skeptical of her motives. My first thought is that she realized that she was closely tied to a man who is more than likely a closeted, hypocritical bigot…Eddie Long. Oh well, I hope for the best and hope she is sincere, at the very least, she is showing public support.

Unlikely that her personal views have changed, but if she can credibly put on the public face and talk the talk required of the CEO of the King Center, then do we really care what she truly believes? She’ll be no different that the majority of corporate leaders whose companies have non-discrimination policies that protect their LGBT employees and offer domestic partnerships but “personally” donate to and support politicians who work to undermine those same protections and benefits. They like their jobs and apparently Bernice likes her new job as well.

If she has had that epiphany, amen.
