Abstract
Abstract:This paper uses thirteen one-on-one semi-structured interviews with LGBTQ+ elders of color and applies classical sociological theories of Weber and Durkheim with an intersectional lens to examine the role of religion in the participants’ lives, with attention to how individual perception of spirituality changes over time. Results reveal three overlapping themes: community through religious faith, activism within religion, and mixed experiences with religion, suggesting the need for acceptance in different communities and reflecting differing perspectives on spirituality. Findings point to new directions for future research on religious/spiritual journeys of LGBTQ+ elders of color.
