Dear friends –
Anti-LGBT+ movements in Africa are not just news stories; they are real threats to our lives.
These movements are crafted, supported, and funded by far-right groups from the United States, the UK, and beyond. They are determined to criminalize our very existence, putting me and my LGBT+ siblings in grave danger. This is no accident but a coordinated, well-funded effort to export hate, manipulate decision-makers, and strip away the freedoms of people like me.
These groups are devastating our communities.
That's why I'm reaching out to you today,as we launch a new campaign dedicated to uncovering the hidden agendas and financial streams that enable this anti-LGBT+ hate. As All Out’s campaign manager based in Kenya, I'm on the front lines of this battle, witnessing the consequences of these hateful movements firsthand. The fear and oppression we face daily fuel my commitment to fight back, but I can't do it without you.
Help dismantle these international networks of bigots by joining our "Exporting Hate" campaign here. Your knowledge, your story, and your expertise are crucial in this fight.
From laws that seek to criminalize our love and identities, to acts of violence and murder that go unpunished, the danger we face is real.
That's why you are a crucial part of this campaign. As we continue to shine a light on groups like Family Watch International, the Fellowship Foundation, and others, holding them to account, we need folks like you to stand with us.
Together, we can dismantle the networks of hate and build a future grounded in love, respect, and equality.
Thank you for going All Out!
Linda, Campaign Manager in Kenya
