Introduction to Quiet Faith, Loud Opinions

Hi - my name is Clark (he/him). I started this blog to have a space to write about Quakerism, transgender identity, and topics that I think intersect with one or both of those things. Recently I’ve been reading a lot of books on a variety of topics that I would like to write reviews for in this context. I don’t write very quickly so I don’t know how often I’ll update this blog, but I’d like to aim for a post every month or so and see where that leaves me.

I called this blog “Quiet Faith, Loud Opinions” because I think that’s the summation of the Quaker spaces I find my home in: we share a common understanding of how our faith is practiced, but feel able to voice our own views and beliefs in discussions where we both help and challenge each other. What I write on this blog represents my own opinions, shared in that kind of spirit.
