Imagine your country is facing a critical blood shortage, but it still won’t let healthy potential donors save lives – because they’re gay. That’s what’s currently happening in Panama. My latest for Openly, the Thomson Reuters Foundation’s LGBTQ+ news brand:

I made a video about Turkey’s plans to ban “LGBT propaganda” and unauthorised sex-reassignment surgeries 👇

Heated Rivalry is blowing up in Russia despite the Kremlin’s censorship of queer topics 👀

I make videos about global LGBTQ+ news and how the EU works, so I love it when I get to do both at the same time.

🇵🇾🏳️‍🌈 I made a video about how the number 108 became a symbol of one of the darkest chapters of Paraguay‘s LGBTQ+ history 👇

Around 100,000 gay and bisexual men were arrested in Nazi Germany between 1933 and 1945. Thousands were sent to concentration camps. Many never came home. Trans people and lesbian and bisexual women were also persecuted, but their experience has been documented to a lesser extent.

Yesterday I posted a TikTok on Slovakia’s anti-LGBTQ+ constitutional amendments, adding context regarding the Slovak PM’s controversial stance on Russia. In 24 hours it has gained more than 100K views, 8K likes and 800 shares, mostly by under 35s.

🇸🇰 Slovakia has amended its constitution to restrict the rights for trans people and same-sex couples. 🏳️‍🌈 Slovak LGBTQ+ rights organization Inakost said: "This amendment directly threatens our membership in the EU, bringing us even closer to authoritarian Russia."

This year, Pride organizers across Germany have one top concern: the safety of participants as neo-Nazi and far-right groups increasingly try to disrupt and attack LGBTQ+ events. Read my full story for Context here: 👉 www.context.news/socioeconomi...

Comcast News-MSNOW was so obvious in their bull manure work, even other platforms were calling out the pro-Trumpism drumbeat. 'ScaredBro' Scarborough and his now 3rd wife 'Meek' Mika, were 'love-nesting homewreckers' at-the-time and being leveraged by Trump, as was Matt Lauer.
