Reverend Canon Mpho Tutu Van-Furth – South Africa
Reverend Canon Mpho Tutu Van-Furth, daughter of the world’s most celebrated clerical leader, South African Archbishop Desmond Tutu, openly announced her marriage to her Dutch female partner in 2016.
The shocking revelation resulted in the removal of her priesthood. She said her father was sad but not surprised at the news. Archbishop Desmond Tutu has publicly supported same-sex marriages and has been vocal in campaigning against homophobia.
Whether or not you agree with the homosexual lifestyle, there are some individuals who identify with it and are not shy about discussing it. Can there be common ground between African culture and homosexuality?
