A courageous group of campaigners in Ukraine want to organize a gay Pride march this Saturday. But extremists have threatened them with violence. A local activist has said that without protection, Pride could become “a massacre.”
The Pride organisers met with authorities yesterday to ask for protection for the marchers — but they haven’t got a guarantee that people will be kept safe from violent attacks.
In 2013, global pressure helped a Pride march in Ukraine go ahead safely. If we join together, we can do that again. Sign and share now - we’ll deliver the petition to the government on Friday.
