The brief

South Africa is a free country full of open minded people and our Constitution is one of the best in the world.The fact that gay marriages are legalised in south Africa shows progress,other people in some African countries are not as fortunate as we are.but we still have a long way to go,we have things like 16 days of activism against children and women abuse. but the fact that remains is that not only children and women are being abused.Besides the South African gay pride which is more of a celebration of the sexuality,it would be reasonable if the government include campaigns against homophobia within those 16 days of activism to promote Equality.The constitution alone will not stop homophobia until we do something as a nation,few is not enough..The incident we had previously with Judge Mogoeng mogoeng about his views towards homosexuality puts the constitution in question,perhaps it is a good thing that the constitution be reviewed..But i am proud as the level of homophobic attacks has decreased,but a lot of work needs to be done..South African bill of rights and homosexuality Aversion project during the apparteid error Read more

Broad View


The main focus here is to break negative stereotypes regarding homosexuality and erradicate homophobia..South Africa is very diversed and we have different cultures and beliefs..but the point of the matter is that we all human despite our race,gender,sexuality,religion and culture..lets all not forget that some times the society grooms you to be who you are,but not all the time..some people are just “born this way”..The main fact here is that we need to stop homophobia and critically analyse the word Human and freedom...There is a lot of campaigns and societies regarding homophobia only few people are taking innitiative, But is the south african government and society doing enough to support this campaigns and societies?...please check out the link to get a broad view of what this blog is about- Read more


What are we honestly hoping to gain or is it realy worth it? Picture source

The world needs to know that freedom apply to everyone, we need to put our ignorance aside and act. beating up someone or killing them because of their sexuality is not only a crime, but it is wrong. The attacks will not stop untill we all act to prevent and stop homophobia. There is an old saying "never judge someone until u have walked a mile in their shoes". Developing countries like south africa needs to know that continuing this attacks will put south african reputation at risk. other countries will question if south africa is realy a democratic republic or is it using democracy as a musk to come out as a perfect nation while it does the opposite. Before attacking or killing some one you must first consider the implications of your action. You will not only end up in jail, but you will put the country at the risk of being excluded world wide..South Africans fought trough apparteid and we won, but the question that remains is HOW IS JUDGING SOMEONE BECAUSE OF THEIR SEXUALITY DIFFERENT FROM JUDGING SOMEONE BECAUSE OF THE COLOUR OF THEIR SKIN?
