Beskrivelse

In this episode of LatAm Dialogues, we focus on the situation for human rights defenders in Latin America where it has become increasingly dangerous to protect human rights.

EP11: In focus- LGBTQ+ rights in Latin America

We are back with LatAm Dialogues season 2! To kick off this season, we have this in focus episode on LGBTQ+, and specifically transgender, rights in Latin America. First, we speak to Tom, who is writing his thesis on the transmasculine community in Cuba, about where the region is in terms of rights for LGBTQ+ individuals. We then had the pleasure of having Liam on the podcast, a Cuban LGBTQ+ activist and the writer, director and cinematographer of the award winning documentary Mi Alma Azul (https://vimeo.com/424896529 password: LiamyAnabel). He discusses what it is like to be a trans activist in Cuba and the work he has been doing to support the community, including his documentary.  Episode notes: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1qhmkTOUYPcRDhxEQTGTrBx4-k0GIlGoMUtQBRHb6Bak/edit?usp=sharing
