In the Dark

I just remembered that today is May 17th which means that it is International Day Against Homophobia Transphobia and Biphobia, This is a worldwide celebration of sexual and gender diversities and a chance to show solidarity against bigotry and intolerance.

A video circulating today on social media in Ireland showing a teenager being beaten up because he is gay reminds us that we need this now more than ever; there’s a news report here. I hope the culprits are brought to justice. The rising tide of violence and discrimination against LGBTQI+ individuals is encouraged by those who spread poisonous rhetoric in the media and online.
