To outsiders, Oklahoma is just a boring flyover state. In the public consciousness, our soup pan-shaped state is a rural dump stuck in the 1890's, populated with conservative hillbillies who think every baby should be born with a gun and a bible, and they better not be gay babies neither.
The public consciousness might actually be correct on that indictment, but there's a good chance if you're reading this right now, you're not well represented by the backwards thinking politicians who dominate our portrayal in the national news. There's actually a wealth of diversity here, at least if you know how to look for it.
