Description
LGBT people in conservative religions are often cut off from the contemplative or mystic facets of their traditions. Can prayer be a way back in? We're following up last week's Roundtable by interviewing Keisha MacKenzie. Originally from London, Keisha completed undergraduate work in English, law, and political science in Jamaica. She has graduate degrees in technical communication and rhetoric.
