LGBT Voices from the Middle East and North Africa (HRW & AFE)
  • 5 years ago
Lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender people living in the Middle East and North Africa share their responses to myths and stereotypes about LGBT people in the region on a new video and special feature released today by the Arab Foundation for Freedoms and Equality (AFE) and Human Rights Watch. Although these myths can be harmful, activists who spoke to AFE and Human Rights Watch for this video face them every day with grace, determination, and humour. In the video, they debunk these myths and share their experiences with other LGBT people in the region, letting them know they are not alone.
