Today is Busi&#8217;s birthday, she would have been 29 but she died on the 12th March 2007.  
Busi was 25, a survivor or rape, HIV+ with diabetes and other complications.   This photo was taken by me on the 18th February 2007 &#8211; one of those happy days of just hanging out with [...]]]></description>

‘How do you convince me to come out and say I am a homosexual yet the same government that is asking me to do this criminalizes what I am engaged in? I would rather they offered the services without going into the business of knowing who we are and trying to count us.’

HIV positive women in Namibia are being coercively sterilized at public hospitals.  In 2008 the International Community of Women Living with HIV/AIDS [ICW] held a series of workshops with HIV positive women in Namibia in which the women spoke of the practice of coercing women into being sterilised.  The practice has been traced [...]]]></description>

I dislike this photo intensely.  It looks like something from a jam jar, a hideous caricature of Black women &#8211; an act of violence.  It comes with this article on gender politics and AIDS. 
 It talks about &#8220;cultural taboos&#8221; and rape driving AIDS.  But it makes no mention of the rape [...]]]></description>

Something many have suspected has now come to light as the International Community of Women Living with HIV\Aids (ICW) prepares to sue the Namibian government over 15 cases for the forced sterilization of women.  Forced sterilizations have also taken place in the DRC, Zambia, South Africa.  In South Africa there are cases of [...]]]></description>

Human Rights Watch publishes the results of a qualitative survey of 100 sexual rights activists from 50 countries on issues of gender identity and sexual orientation.   From an African perspective the findings of  &#8220;Together Apart&#8221;are predictable but it is helpful and supportive to know that activists face similar challenges across the world.

The trial has been delayed over and over and finally well we thought finally it was due to start on the 26th May and then 27th May.  Another cancellation and now we learn that both the trial and the pre-trial conference have been delayed indefinitely.  What is going on?  Steve Kretzmann Han [...]]]></description>

The 9 Senegalese HIV/AIDS counsellors sentenced to 8 years in prison for homosexuality  have had their convictions overturned.    The men were convicted on the basis of &#8220;hearsay&#8221; and anonymous tip offs so it&#8217;s not surprising that the prosecution did not question the appeal decision.   The arrest of the men [...]]]></description>
