This month's edition of No One Is Illegal Radio focusses on the struggles of queer and LGBT people in the Middle East, as well as efforts to launch a boycott, divestment and sanctions campaign against Israel.
On this month's show, you will hear from:
--> Rasha of Helem. Helem is a LGBT group based in Beirut, Lebanon.
--> Nay of Aswat in Palestine. Aswat is a Palestinian Lesbian group.
Both Rasha and Nay were speakers at "Out Against the Occupation" events in Montreal. Out Against the Occupation is a Montreal-based queer and LGBT response to the recent Israeli agression against Lebanon and the ongoing occupation of Palestine.
Also, we'll hear from:
--> Rafeef Ziadah, of the Sumoud Political Prisoner Solidarity Group and the Coalition Against Israeli Apartheid (CAIA) in Toronto
Rafeef speaks at the opening of the “Boycotting Israeli Apartheid: The Struggle Continues” conference (October 6-8 in Toronto) dedicated to promoting the growing anti-apartheid movement in Palestine and abroad through a comprehensive boycott, divestment, and sanctions (BDS) campaign targeting Israeli apartheid.
