At the Hamburg CSD Parade 2021, we from the initiative International Women in Power and Junges Forum Deutsch-Israelische Gesellschaft (Jufodig-Hamburg) will again set a sign on
Saturday, 07 August: against the execution, discrimination and criminalisation of homosexuals in Iran and worldwide.
Meeting point 11am, Neuer Jungfernstieg - Jungfernstieg Ballingdamm.
We will accompany the parade with a performance. We want to inform all participants and spectators that people in Islamic countries have to fear for their lives just because they are homosexual
or transsexual - in Afghanistan, Brunei, Iran, Yemen, Qatar, Mauritania, Nigeria, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Somalia and the United Arab Emirates. The performance is about beauty queens representing
these countries.
The road to legal, political and social equality is still long - and persecuted people around the world need our support and solidarity along the way.
Yours,
Hourvash Pourkian
