The United States, UK, and Israel were among the last countries to end their support for the apartheid regime in South Africa.

The legacy of a liberated South Africa lives on as a country that defeated apartheid takes the Israeli apartheid regime to The Hague for genocide.

South Africa legal team's Adila Hassim @CIJ_ICJ: “Genocides are never declared in advance, but this court has the benefit of the past 13 weeks of evidence that shows incontrovertibly a pattern of conduct & related intention that justifies a plausible claim of genocidal acts.”

[Jeremy Corbyn @jeremycorbyn]

Today's ICJ hearing was devastating. Horror after horror, laid out in plain sight for all to see.

South Africa spoke for millions around the world desperate for this massacre to end — and put the UK & US government to shame for their deplorable silence, cowardice and complicity.

Earlier this year, Rainbow Railroad staff traveled to Jamaica to meet with partner organizations we work with on the ground. This video diary captures the experience of this trip, and the vital work of partners we continue to support.

(7/7) experience, I can't promote a program that fails to see that Wintemute is not a relevant expert given his views & role in promoting transphobia through his involvement with the LGB Alliance. I hope this will change in 2024 when they replace him. #TransRightsAreHumanRights

(1/7) 🧵I was asked to promote the SOGI in International Law program at the University of Leiden as an alumni of the 2022 cohort. Unfortunately, I cannot, as an LGBTQI+ activist, support the program in good conscious.

(6/7) Clearly our concerns fell on deaf ears, and Wintemute has been invited back. It is a shame, as outside of this, I learned a great deal and met some incredible lawyers and activists with whom I continue with work with and learn alongside. Despite my otherwise positive...

The last 3 days of inspiring and productive work at the Global Gathering for Sponsorship in Madrid has been 10/10. Ample co-working & networking space that was prioritized and built into an agenda was really refreshing. Ty @theGRSI and @amnesty for convening this space 🙏🏼

Rainbow Railroad strongly condemns the arrests and death sentences of two #LGBTQI+ activists in Iran, which are discriminatory and without valid legal basis. We call on Iranian authorities to immediately quash the convictions of Zahra Sedighi-Hamadani and Elham Choubdar.

It's out there! On display @chaptersindigo. Must admit it was a bit surprising to walk into the Bay/Bloor Chapters here in Toronto and see my face on the display table. My first experience of seeing the book for sale in real life, since before it was all happening in Australia.
