All Out: I was in a gay 'cure' clinic

"No one should face the trauma I did at a gay 'cure' clinic. Join me and call on World Health Organization Director Margaret Chan to speak out against gay 'cures' in China." "When the patient has a gay thought, we electrocute them or inject them with drugs that make them sick." One gay 'cure' clinic doctor in China said this to show what they do to gay people.  It happened to me. In families like mine, being gay is still seen as something that can be cured, and scam clinics prey on that fear. Now, I want my friends, my family andeveryone in China to understand that being gay is normal. Dr. Margaret Chan is the head of the World Health Organization (WHO) – an influential international authority who's from China. If we come together by the thousands we could get her to speak out against anti-gay 'cures' – and help convince officials to finally ban them. Will you sign my petition asking WHO Director Dr. Margaret Chan to speak up now and condemn gay 'cures' in China? https://www.allout.org/end-gay-cures-china

Activists have celebrated the decision

Activists have celebrated a court ruling invalidating Uganda’s anti-gay law.

Earlier today, the country’s Constitutional Court today struck down the law, finding that the speaker of parliament acted illegally by moving ahead with a vote on the law despite at least three lawmakers objecting to a lack of quorum.
