Faith leaders: Comparing HB2 with Civil Rights Movement ‘offensive’
RALEIGH, NC (WTVD) — A group of African American pastors and faith leaders is taking aim at the Attorney General over comments she made about transgender rights.
The criticism centers on the directive issued by the Obama administration to allow transgender students to use the bathroom matching their gender identity.
Community leaders representing the North Carolina Values Coalition held a news conference at the state capital Tuesday to discuss Attorney General Loretta Lynch’s comparison of transgender bathroom rights to the Civil Rights Movement – a comparison they called “offensive and false.”
