| Abstract | This report provides context for a series of videos, produced by Human Rights Watch and the Arab Foundation for Freedoms and Equality, which feature activists reaching out in Arabic with messages of support for LGBT people in the Middle East and North Africa. The report looks at movements making change in the face of criminalization of same-sex conduct, arbitrary arrests and ill-treatment, violence, restrictions on freedom of expression and association, family rejection, community stigma, and other obstacles. |
