This June, our continent will see its first-ever “Africa Pride” event, a virtual event celebrating homosexuality across Africa. The event is organised by “Reverend” Troy Perry, an American activist, in protest against the criminalisation of homosexual behaviour in Africa. This announcement comes as a bill has been introduced in Botswana’s parliament which would amend the constitution to incorporate specific protection for “intersex persons”, a move which has been widely condemned by Christians in the southern African nation.
