The Cimarron Alliance Equality Center Presents:
Debunking the “No Hope” Network: Demons, Disinformation, and Deceit
An evening with Truth Wins Out’s Wayne Besen
Join us for a lively discussion as Besen demonstrates the dangers of “reparative” therapy and introduces video interviews with leading experts who clarify once and for all that it is simply impossible to change a person’s sexual orientation.
This is an effort to counteract a “convention” of proponents of such dangerous therapy. Called Restoring Hope 2013: The Truth that Transforms, this convention is anything but truthful. Besen will deconstruct their lies so that you, your family, and friends have all of the tools you need to help stop this potentially deadly therapy.
Wayne Besen is the world’s foremost authority on the so-called ex-gay movement. He has literally written the book that outs this movement for what it is: A collection of snake oil salesmen who prey on LGBT people and their families. The results are two-fold: Money lining the pockets of the “therapists” and families left more broken than before. Besen’s organization, Truth Wins Out, has gained international attention for its efforts to expose the so-called ex-gay movement for what it is: A pack of lies.
This is a free event and open to everyone.
Thursday, June 20, 7:00 p.m. at the Equality Center.
