Publisher's Synopsis
Pride & Prejudice: Healing Division in the Modern Family is a heartfelt exploration into the intricate balance between celebrating one's identity (pride) and confronting ingrained biases (prejudice). Dr. Matt R. Salmon shares his experience growing up queer in a family and religion that condemned it.
Drawing upon professional expertise and unique life experiences, this book offers a fresh perspective on the challenges and opportunities that arise in families with LGBTQ+ members. The author channels these experiences into a powerful narrative, aiming to inspire change and prevent further harms inflicted by societal biases. It is a compelling read for parents, religious leaders, and individuals working to embrace their identity, as well as for those seeking to deepen their understanding of the complexities of acceptance and diversity.
Through a mix of personal narratives, psychological insights, and practical strategies, Pride & Prejudice guides readers through understanding prejudice, breaking it down, and paving a way toward healing division with empathy, open conversation, and unconditional love. It's more than an analysis of the modern family; it's a roadmap to fostering inclusive environments that celebrate the colorful spectrum of humanity.
