A tribute to and expression of Jamaica's sexual minorities in the struggle to overcome prejudice and violence and to assume their rights as citizens, as full human beings

Catchup
So much has been reported lately that i'm hoping it'll generate some comments and exchange. There have been the gay-bashings at Tropical Plaza, the MoBay carnival, the Mandeville funeral and the Falmouth drag queen. The silver lining to the cloud could be the outcry by Bishop Herro Blair and Jamaicans for Justice calling a for a halt to the anti-gay violence, and the mostly supportive editorials and columns which have followed this rash of incidents. This seems like a slight shift to me. Then Public Defender Witter had to put his mouth in it, basically telling gays to lap them skirt.
The positive news has been all about the Sunshine Cathedral outreach and planting of MCC among a number of congregations. It would be great to hear from some of those involved. Give us the inside story, nuh?
