This Way Out

Denise Ho Jailed & Farewell, bell

todayJanuary 11, 2022 1

Background
share close

Denise Ho has been on Beijing’s bad list since the lesbian Cantopop star came out in 2012, then her advocacy for democracy in Hong Kong and speech at the UN Human Rights Council in 2019 (excerpts included) increased the tensions, and now her association with an independent news website has led to her arrest!

Black feminist theorist bell hooks leaves behind the challenge “Why Choose to Love?” and Professor Beverly Guy-Sheftall remembers her prolific friend (from “Democracy Now!”).

And in NewsWrap: Senegal’s legislature nixes tougher anti-queer laws, two tortured Tunisian gays seek sex crime repeal, the U.K. expands “Turing’s Law” pardon eligibility, Israel opens surrogacy services to queer couples, a Taiwan court grants adoption rights to a gay co-dad, Cuba proposes a new pro-marriage equality Family Code, India’s major matchmaking site opens to LGBTQ hopefuls, and more international LGBTQ news reported this week by John Dyer V and Sarah Montague (produced by Brian DeShazor).

All this on the January 10, 2022 edition of This Way Out!
