Last week, I was honored to be interviewed by Cimarron Alliance Executive Director Scott Hamilton while I was in Oklahoma City. Together, we countered the new “ex-gay” cult, Restored Hope Network, as they peddled their snake oil in OKC. Here is the interview from Scott’s show, Oklahoma Inside Out:
Wayne Besen is the Founding Executive Director of Truth Wins Out and author of “Anything But Straight: Unmasking the Scandals and Lies Behind the Ex-Gay Myth” (Haworth, 2003). In 2010, Besen was awarded the “Visionary Award” at the Out Music Awards for organizing the American Prayer Hour, an event which shined a spotlight on the role American evangelicals played in the introduction of Uganda’s Anti-Homosexuality Bill.
