Peter Tatchell will be a guest speaker today along with Raphael Francis Fox (My Generation), Phelim McCafferty (Green Party), Russian and local activists at the solidarity demo, To Russia With Love, Brighton UK.
In Russia today, LGBTQ+ people and their allies are under attack, they are beaten, arrested and murdered. New anti-gay laws have effectively made it illegal to even mention the existence of LGBTQ+ people positively, let alone defend their human rights.
Currently being proposed is a law which would remove custody rights of gay parents of their own children.
The event takes place from noon in New Steine Gardens off St James Street in Kemptown.
