Description
Summary:Affiche van een sensibiliseringscampagne tegen homofobie, uitgegeven in 1999 door Terrence Higgins Trust en Community HIV and AIDS Prevention Strategy (CHAPS). Tekst: “I can’t stand homophobes, especially when they flaunt it.” Some people have a problem with the thought of two men holding hands in public. To others, the problem is homophobic prejudice. Homophobia is prejudice or discrimination against lesbians or gay men. Most of us like to think we're tolerant. But even so, you can probably remember anti-gay things you've said or thought in the past. Imagine you find out that someone you care about is gay. A relative or someone you work with, perhaps. Would it alter the way you think and behave? lf your answer is yes, maybe now is the time to change. Times are certainly changing. Homophobia, like other forms of prejudice, has no place in society today. No one is born homophobic. We pick it up over the years, from the play­ground, the media and from those around us. lt's something we could all leave behind. What can you do to help? Speak out the next time someone insults or takes the mickey out of a gay colleague or friend. And support the idea that everyone shouId be treated equally and with respect. lt's prejudice that's queer.
