Call for Entries: The Nigah QueerFest'10 in Dehli, India

Now in its fourth year, The Nigah Queer Fest’10 http://www.thequeerfest.com is Dehli‘s annual celebration of queerness. The festival this year brings back the curated film festival and our popular performance component along with a visual arts exhibition, workshops, parties and more.

On July 2nd, 2009, the Delhi High Court ruled that Sec 377 of the Indian Penal Code – an anti-sodomy statute – was unconstitutional and violated the rights and dignity of queer Indians. Since that day, many have said that queer people in India are on their way to becoming “free.”

LGTB Pride Beograd: In what quantity are human rights consumed? A Text by Zoe Gudovic

Topic: 
Activism
LGBT and queer issues

The PRIDE PARADE took place.
This is roughly the fourth time that there was an attempt to organize it, gather the people, stroll down the streets, so that we can show that lesbians, gays, trans and queer people exist in Serbia. However you classify yourself, whichever group you belong to, you either think you have freedom or you know that you don’t have it.
