ECUADOR PROTEST EX-GAY CLINIC X390 (SOURCED) | ADVOCATE.COM
Ecuador's government announced this week that it would shut down clinics
that were torturing and abusing people with promises to “cure” them of
homosexuality.
AllOut.org co-founder Andre Bank credited "courageous LGBT and women's
rights activists in Ecuador, and supporters around the world who helped
elevate this national scandal to global prominence." AllOut and Change.org
circulated petitions with a combined 178,000 signatures, demanding an end to
so-called "ex-gay" clinical programs.
Earlier this week, Ecuadorian President Rafael Correa appointed out lesbian
and LGBT rights activist Carina Vance Mafla as the new Health Minister. |
