‘I am black, I am a woman and I am a lesbian’- USVI Senator Janelle K. Sarauw
“I am black, I am a woman and I am a lesbian”, were the words of Guest Speaker and USVI Senator Janelle K. Sarauw told the roomful of women.
Senator Sarauw told the 140plus women and few men present that when she first ran for the senate she was dissected in several ways, with her personal life being placed on the forefront.
“Things were said about me that I didn’t even know about myself and people had the craziest stories and they repeated it with conviction.”
‘Closet is for clothes’- Senator Sarauw
She related that WhatsApp became her enemy to the point that she was angry and hurt to the extent of becoming slightly paranoid. “…. I knew that I was different. I knew that I had many different identities… the concept of intersectionality, I am black, I am a woman and I am a lesbian and I am out and I am proud, because I believe the closet is for clothes and shoes, I have no reason to be hiding.”
Senator Sarauw said she knew that those identities would cause fear.
Her sexuality, she said, became that floor mat for many following a publication in the Virgin Islands Daily News which, according to her, was an interview on education during which she did mention being a lesbian.
“The following day the headline said Senator Sarauw acknowledged she is gay and then the content of the article had nothing to do with the headline and there were so many malicious headlines that the media did a number on me.”
The crowd heard from the senator that she had to allow some things to die within her to birth the woman she was becoming.
“And the reason why so many women don’t become the women they want is because they are too attached to who they have been, and to get there you have to lose some friends, some family and some company,” Sarauw stated.
Before 2001, anal sex and oral sex for both heterosexuals and male homosexuals were criminal offences, referred to as "buggery" under the British Virgin Islands Criminal Code.
Lesbian activity has never been illegal.

“In righteousness, you shall judge your neighbour.” Leviticus 19:16. Righteous judgment means not judging according to the flesh, but according to the spirit. (John 8:15).
Spiritual compromise happens when you refuse to submit to God’s ways.
God told Moses (Exod. 32:9), “I have seen this people, and behold, they are an obstinate people.” Literally, “they are a stiff-necked people.” Like a stubborn animal that refuses to submit to the yoke, stiff-necked people refuse to submit to the Lord and His ways with them. They think that their ways are right and everyone else, including God, is wrong. Israel’s “stiff necks” are seen in their repeated grumbling against the Lord, in spite of His repeated, gracious dealings with them.
2 Timothy 3:1-5
But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with such people.
what you need to do is take another book besides that fairy tail called the bible which been translated from old English and to English which they removed books from because they didn't agree with those fairy tails go do research get educated and let people live their life as they please....hopefully i get my point across
Ask the Almighty when your burning in brimstones since you don't have free will. You just comply with the bullsh**. I have all my common sense to know that they Elites set everyone up to go against the father. Look at world and see if we're not living in Sodom and Gomorrah. You're so stupid that you don't even know that we're living in revelation. I know you here the rumors of war also with the famines raise in gas prices and hike in groceries. Stay sleep
By their Fruit you shall know them.
Period!
Leviticus 19:19 - check your outfits! “ neither shall a garment mingled of linen and woollen come upon thee”
Leviticus 9:10 - one for all you fish lovers “ All that have not fins and scales in the seas, and in the rivers, of all that move in the waters, and of any living thing which is in the waters, they shall be an abomination unto you.”
God’s Wrath Against Sinful Humanity
18 The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of people, who suppress the truth by their wickedness, 19 since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them. 20 For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse.
21 For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened. 22 Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools 23 and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images made to look like a mortal human being and birds and animals and reptiles.
24 Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another. 25 They exchanged the truth about God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator—who is forever praised. Amen.
26 Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural sexual relations for unnatural ones. 27 In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed shameful acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their error.
GOD IS NOT THE AUTHOR OF CONFUSION. HE IS A PERFECT GOD AND HE MADE US PERFECT BEINGS. HE TOLD ADAM AND EVE TO MULTIPLY AND REPLENISH THE EARTH.
Two men cannot procreate, likewise, two men cannot procreate.
Senator, you need Jesus. We are living in the end-times. Gave your heart to the Lord and depart from this abominaton.
