How The Equality Act Would Hurt Black Churches

When I first arrived from Jamaica to the United States in 1979, I did not fully understand the ramifications of religious freedom. Even though I was a practicing Christian, I remember denying a staff member's request for a day off on Good Friday as a new manager at a Boston hospital. It never occurred to me that I might be impinging on this person's expression of faith. In retrospect, it's a decision I deeply regret.
