| 5/31/24 | China: transgender histories from late imperial China | The term ‘transgender’ is a modern concept. Only in the last thirty years or so has it gained wide-ranging acceptance, but this is where the name and the lived reality part ways.

| 5/8/24 | Egypt: religion and discrimination against queer people | Many queer people struggle to reconcile their religion with their sexuality.

| 5/8/24 | Georgia: proposed bill threatens the country’s LGBTQIA+ community | The former Soviet country of Georgia has seen many challenges for the LGBTQIA+ community since the USSR collapsed in 1991. Homophobic politicians, pride march bans and violence. Now the current ruling party is proposing a bill that could see bans on changing gender, same sex couples from adopting children, and the barring of public celebrations of same-sex relationships. But is this a serious threat, or a preelection storm in a tea cup? Giorgi Tabagari is the former executive director of Tbilisi Pride.

| 5/4/24 | Ghana: Global pressure to halt harsh anti-gay laws | The west African country of Ghana has passed some of the harshest anti-LGBT laws. The country now imposes gaol terms for anyone identifying as LGBTQ, anyone who participates in LGBTQ groups and members of the public who fail to report anyone who they think is LGBTQ. The only thing stopping these laws is the country’s president. This has triggered an internation push to pressure the president to veto the laws, but so far there’s no sign either way of the president’s next move.

| 2/25/24 | Russia: LGBT support in exile | The mysterious disappearance this week of the leading opposition voice inside Russia is not a surprise to many. Alexei Navalny was an outspoken lawyer, crusading against corruption and dictators. It shows a ruthlessness in dealing with any potential threats inside Russia. For the LGBT community, there has been an exodus from Russia. The fear the outcomes of Russia’s expanding anti-LGBT propaganda laws, which effectively ban any public mention of same-sex relations, and the demonstrated ruthlessness of the government in dealing with any perceived opposition, mean that leaving is an act of survival. On this podcast, we speak to Executive Director in exile of Coming Out SPB, Aleksandr Voronov. The post Russia: LGBT support in exile appeared first on World Wide Wave. | — | ||||||

| 2/25/24 | Global: What Pride means today | As the curtain comes down on Melbourne’s annual celebration of Pride, the Midsumma festival, and goes up to the Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras – it’s a good time to dissect what Pride today means. Is it a protest, a victory dance over past wrongs, a corporate marketing platform, or just a big party? And how does it change with a world view? The expression of queer Pride differs all over the world and is certainly not always a party. In this podcast, we hear from international LGBT advocate organisation, Out Right International, on their third annual report on Pride around the world. We will hear from Noel Campbell from the Equality For All Foundation in Jamaica, Nadine Smith who is the Executive Director of Equality Florida, and more.
