Carrie Evans rocked a city council meeting by coming out of the closet, the tiny city of Minot, North Dakota has experienced an uptick in outward homophobia.It was on full display during another council meeting this past Monday (September 21) as debate continued over flying the Pride Flag outside Minot City Hall.
The city originally planned to fly the flag throughout the month of June, though deferred those plans until September due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
During the September 14 council meeting, Evans came out of the closet to push back against an angry Minot resident who didn’t want his city associated with the flag.Evans’ declaration brought citizens out of the woodwork on both sides of the debate.
