Soweto Gay pride is fast approaching. Soweto is known as one of the legendary townships in South Africa. Soweto was the center of apartheid activities. Soweto reminds us about the violation of human rights during the early and mid 20th century. Gay right were also violated but the difference is that the violation of queer individuals rights were not motivated by race. Prior to the main annual Johannesburg Pride that will be taking place on the 6 October 2012 at zoo lake sports club,Soweto will also be hosting their annual Soweto pride on the 29 September 2012 in preparation for the main pride. All provinces should adopt this initiative of hosting provincial Marches for queer individual. This will help in promoting gay rights and educating society about homosexuality on a national scale. Gay marches are good for eradicating homophobia.
