STOP HOMOPHOBIA IN RUSSIA NOW!
Discrimination and violence against the LGBT community in Russia is real and on the rise.
Intolerance and open expressions of hate towards those with a different sexual orientation or gender identity is taken as a given, allowing to go unpunished by the law.
Laws against the so-called: “propaganda of homosexuality” are enforce in 8 regions of Russia: Ryazan, Archangel, Saint Petersburg, Kostroma, Novosibirsk, Magadan, Samara and Krasnodar and under discussion in many others.
The human rights of LGBT persons in Russia are being infringed on and flagrantly abused on a daily basis.
Homophobia is destructive and in its worst form it can bruise, beat and even kill LGBT people. It's time to take action.
