Namibia is reportedly making moves to officially abolish its colonial-era sodomy laws from its books by the end of this year. According to local news publication Windhoek Observer, the move has been several years in the making. In 2018, the country’s Law Reform and Development Commission (LRDC) began a project of identifying obsolete laws “that need to be done away with, amended, or repealed.” On Monday, the LRDC submitted a report on its criminal codes outlawing same-sex intimacy to Justice Minister Yvonne Dausab, who plans on a proposal to the Cabinet striking down the laws in two weeks. Namibia’s anti-sodomy codes are a legacy of Roman-Dutch common law, similar to many other nations that are left with homophobic statutes imposed upon them by their former colonizers. Although there’s no direct criminalization of same-sex sexual activity on the books via the country’s laws, 2004’s Criminal Procedure Act outlines the requirement providing evidence of sodomy in prosecution. While the precedent for enforcing these laws exists, the laws are rarely used, according to the report submitted Monday. Between 2003 and 2013, 115 sodomy cases were reported to the police, resulting in 64 arrests, according to national newspaper The Namibian. The report also claims that the law is “very likely unconstitutional,” as it violates the rights of LGBTQ+ people and creates a culture of intolerance. According to the U.K. publication Gay Times, Dausab said the abolishment of the outmoded statutes is a way for the south African country “to move in a direction that will make all Namibians feel included” and “make all Namibians feel they are members of the Namibian House.” But while pushing for greater inclusion for the LGBTQ+ community, she also denied the existence of state-sponsored homophobia. “Homophobia, transphobia, any phobic tendencies are not state-sanctioned,” Dausab said. “But we must allow people to have their own views. What we should not allow is that there is any active or passive discrimination against any segment of our society.” Omar van Reenen, founder of the Namibia Equal Rights Movement (NERM), pushed back on this claim. In comments reported by the website Afro News, he asserted that it was “disingenuous to not acknowledge that former president Sam Nujoma told police officers to arrest, deport and imprison the LGBTQ+ people.” “It is sad to not acknowledge that former justice minister Albert Kawana was the person responsible for not removing sexual orientation from the labour act,” he added, referencing a labor law that provides protections for Namibian workers. Still, van Reenen welcomed the abolishment of the laws, while also calling for greater governmental accountability and for the passage of an LGBTQ+ equality bill. While things are looking up for Namibia’s LGBTQ+ population, circumstances remain grim further north in Ghana. In February, an LGBTQ+ community center in Accra, the country’s capital, was raided by police, forcing it to shut down after only a month of operation. The following month, Ghanaian lawmakers introduced a bill that would criminalize LGBTQ+ advocacy, with President Nana Akufo-Addo indicating that he would sign it into law if passed. Despite the fact that this bill is not yet law, 21 LGBTQ+ activists were arrested for “unlawful assembly” in the city of Ho last week and are currently being held without bail. This most recent incident has attracted international attention. On Tuesday, the U.S. State Department issued a statement to the LGBTQ+ news publication Washington Blade on Tuesday in which it claimed that the Biden administration is “monitoring the situation closely.” “We urge national leaders in Ghana to uphold constitutional human rights protections and to adhere to international human rights obligations and commitments for all individuals,” the statement reads. “This includes members of the LGBTQI+ community. We call on all Ghanaians to respect the provisions under Ghana’s constitution that guarantee freedom of speech, expression, and peaceful assembly. Source

Come on RuPaul’s Drag Race fans, let’s get six-ening! Less than a year after All Stars 5 crowned Shea Couleé a winner, another returning queen is ready to assume her throne. Earlier today, Drag Race All Stars announced the lineup for Season 6 which premieres June 24 on Paramount+. The new season looks to be a ray of sunshine… literally. The color theme for this year’s cast photo is creamsicle realness. (Someone run Tina Burner her check. While you’re at it, make sure Kacey Musgraves is a guest judge this season, because it’s giving Golden Hour.) Off the bat, the cast appears promising. One could even say they’re... shining bright. (Okay, I’ll stop with the sun puns. They’re burning your eyes.) Season 6 appears to have no clear frontrunner, which is a refreshing change of pace. Plus, Drag Race OGs are equally matched with newer cycle queens. Here’s the lineup: A’Keria C. Davenport (Season 11) Eureka (Season 9, 10) Ginger Minj (Season 7, All stars 2) Jan (Season 12) Jiggly Caliente (Season 4) Pandora Boxx (Season 2, All Stars 1) Ra’Jah O’Hara (Season 11) Scarlet Envy (Season 11) Serena ChaCha (Season 5) Silky Nutmeg Ganache (Season 11) Kylie Sonique Love (Season 2) Trinity K. Bonet (Season 6) Yara Sofia (Season 2, All Stars 1) Once again, there are returning players who are returning again: Pandora Boxx and Yara Sofia both competed on a debut season and All Stars 1, while Ginger Minj returned for the first time in All Stars 2.

Daddy Freeze further added that a disciple of Jesus, Peter once called him "Lucifer" which means "bringer of light". He wrote; I declare to you today that praying in the name or title ‘Lucifer’ is more potent than praying in the name your colonial masters gave your savior. - Jesus has NO meaning in Hebrew, Aramaic, Greek, Latin or English, while Lucifer’ on the other hand means ‘light bringer’ as used in the original Latin scriptures quoted below, correctly translated from the Greek word ‘φωσφ?ρος’ which has the 100 percent exact same meaning as Lucifer. - Below, you can clearly see a well documented instance of Peter calling Christ ‘Lucifer’ in the Latin Bible and ‘φωσφ?ρος’ in the Greek Bible. The original language of the New Testament is GREEK and to properly understand scripture, you can’t neglect it. - The Greek and Latin bibles were written more than 1,600 years before the grossly erroneous biblical mistranslation called the King James Version was declared as the ‘Authorized Version’. - ? 2 Peter 1:19 ?

In Nigeria, many Nigerian parents disown their children or subject them to very harsh and dehumanizing treatment after they find out about their sexuality. But the 26-year-old graduate of computer science said he is still in shock about the way his parents reacted after they found his gay porn online. Speaking to NoStrings, he said; “I was very shocked and still am. I was also very scared when my mother called and started telling me about how my father and her saw me misbehaving with another man in a video online. Before I could explain myself, they cut in and told me that they wanted to see me” Ikechukwu who finished from Abia State University three years ago with no job said he was frustrated, disappointed, and broke, hence, the reason why he dabbled into gay porn with the hope that he’ll be able to make some money to sustain himself. “I got into acting gay porn through a friend. I was so broke, frustrated, and disappointed in myself and so desperately wanted to do something to survive and keep myself going. Things have become so hard now in the country, and as a jobless young man, it was even so difficult for me. I couldn’t turn to my parents because that’ll further make me feel like a total failure. Even though acting porn wasn’t as lucrative and sustainable as I had thought, it did help me pay some bills”. During his days at the University, Ikechukwu learned how to cut hair, and was so good at it, but after he left school and moved to another state, it became difficult for him to find new clients. He also tried looking for a job and sent in several applications to several organizations that never called him back. Also, the few who called did not get back to him after the interviews. However, things took a positive turn for Ikechukwu after he received a call from his parents who afterward, decided to help him start up a business. “I still cannot believe it. I was thinking they’ll scold and condemn me. I know my dad to be very harsh, and they are both very religious. I was even thinking they’ll talk about my sexuality, but instead, they only asked me why I was acting porn and I explained to them how things were not going well for me and how broke I was. They blamed me for not telling them, and then after a week or so, gave me money to set up my saloon. Now I am a proud owner of a classy hair salon. The business is still growing, but I am so grateful to them” He said with excitement. Source

LGBTQ+ South Africans Demand Justice After Hate Crime Wave
FlyJ posted a topic in Latest News and Gist
Lonwabo Jack, a 22-year-old gay man, was murdered in Cape Town, South Africa on Sunday, according to police. Jack, who was out with his friends celebrating his birthday, was sexually assaulted and stabbed to death in Nyanga, a town in the Western Cape, a township home to nearly 58,000 people. His father, Mzwabantu, remembered Jack as a “nice kid” who was “always surrounded by his friends and liked fun and good times.” “He was a quiet kid and would not say some of the things he would experience because he felt like he could handle them just like any other man,” he told the South African news website Independent Online. “However, when he told us that he was raped we knew as his parents that we had to take a stand.” “It’s heartbreaking to give birth to a child and also bury them,” Mzwabantu added. A suspect in Lonwabo’s murder was reportedly detained following a police investigation. A representative for the South African Police Service did not identify a suspect but claimed in comments to the website Eyewitness News that a 17-year-old individual “was apprehended early this morning.” “He is expected to appear in the Athlone Magistrates Court once he has been charged with murder,” said media liaison officer Noloyiso Rwexana. The escalation of hate crimes against LGBTQ+ South Africans has prompted concern and outcry from local LGBTQ+ community members and organizations. According to the U.K. LGBTQ+ publication PinkNews, Jack is believed to be the fourth LGBTQ+ person murdered in the country in less than a month. LGBTQ+ advocates led a Friday protest at the Houses of Parliament in Cape Town. Protesters demanded that the country’s government take action to address the surge of anti-LGBTQ+ violence and to specifically call for justice in the case of Andile “Lulu” Ntuthela, a 40-year-old gay man who was recently murdered in the Eastern Cape. As PinkNews reported, Ntuthela’s body was discovered in a shallow grave 11 days after he was killed. The suspect, who is 28 years old, has not been named in media reports. The group also delivered a memorandum to parliament, in which they called for increased government action in the face of these hate crimes, as well as for harsher punishments for offenders and for the development of long-term solutions. “We are calling for justice for Lulu and and for other queers who have suffered at the hands of this country in the most brutal ways,” said Kamva Gwana, a representative of the group Justice for Lulu, in comments cited by South Africa’s News 24. “We want hate crimes to be dealt with. We believe the police service is queerphobic and we are done begging the public and the government for change.” Source -

Welcome to For fags sake! Here, you have a safe space to be a faggot in Nigeria. All members of the LGBTQ community are welcome. I make videos on queer issues while being fabulous. Don't bother being homophobic, I've heard all you have to say and honestly, I don't care! In this video, I and Matthew react to a video of a man claiming to have gone through gay deliverance. It was important to debunk this myth pushed by Christians and reiterate that being a homosexual isn’t something to be delivered of.
