MEET THE FAITH: "BLACK HOMOPHOBIA" -- Panel members Keith Boykin, Bishop E. Bernard Jordan, and Sheryl Lee Ralph tackle the questions, Are black people more homophobic than others?

Some critics say that our religion makes our people homophobic. Do some preach for civil rights but neglect civil liberties like the gay marriage debate? Also for discussion...the "down-low brother." In short, the media has taken the theory as fact. But is the public misinformed? Is the myth of the "down-low brotha" mainstream media's culprit of choice for Black HIV rates? Does it add to distrust between Black men and women?
