Kentucky Faith Leaders for Fairness, co-chaired by Rev. Bojangles Blanchard (Cooperative Baptist Fellowship) and Rev. Derek Penwell (Christian Church, Disciples of Christ), joined together with the Fairness Coalition and Southerners for the Freedom to Marry to call for support of same-gender marriage and statewide anti-discrimination protections in the commonwealth at Douglass Boulevard Christian Church.
Inspired by the United Church of Christ's lawsuit for marriage equality in North Carolina, Kentucky Faith Leaders for Fairness felt called to publicly express the principle that, "Every individual and every family has the God-given right to be treated with dignity and respect," shared Rev. Blanchard.
