Gay pride and prejudice in Kenya

Ishmael, an openly gay Kenyan man living in the small coastal town of Mtwapa, just north of Mombasa, says that many gay men have come to live here, attracted by its open-minded and liberal atmosphere.

But this image of the town has been overshadowed by an increasingly vocal and mobilised anti-gay campaign which has been garnering local support.

This comes after similar moves in neighbouring Uganda and Malawi.

Read the full article on BBC News here.

You can listen to Nina Robinson's report on the BBC World Service's Assignment programme from Thursday 17 June.

Prevalence of Homophobia' - News Round Up

Following the International Day Against Homophobia and Transphobia launch of the 'Prevalence of Homophobia' surveys in the North West, the following news reports have appeared showing the true extent of homophobia in our schools.

- Homophobic abuse rife in Liverpool schools by Marc Waddington, Liverpool Echo
- Liverpool marks International Day Against Homophobia (IDAHO), Liverpool Daily Post:
- Peter Tatchell to launch Liverpool anti-homophobic bullying plan, Crosby Herald
- Coronation Street Antony Cotton in gay-hate bullies plea, MEN

in addition BBC Radio GMR featured coverage of the story in its morning and afternoon news bulletin. This included an interview with Prof. Martin Hall (Vice-Chancellor of Salford University) host of the NUT launch. Commercial Radio Key 103 included interviews from those attending the launch in its news bulletins and feature.

Schools OUT and LGBT History Month Co-Chair, Tony Fenwick, said, "At last the press is reporting what teachers and pupils have known for ages; that homophobia is endemic in our schools. Now we need to challenge the Government, the LEAs and our school's leaders to take on homophobia and eradicate it."

Middle C: A Year-Long Transition from Woman to Man

The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation presents the first person documentary Middle C, in which Tristan R. Whiston chronicles his year-long gender transition from woman to man - through the change in his singing voice.

Tristan first performed as solo soprano at the age of six. Years of hard work led to an accomplished singing career.

But two years ago, Tristan decided to give up the most precious thing a singer has — the voice.

For a year, Tristan kept audio diaries, including milestones like the his first testosterone shot and the first time he shaved.

This documentary (made for Outfront) won the Premios Ondas award for International Radio and a silver medal at the New York Festivals.

Tristan has worked in Toronto’s independent theatre community for almost two decades. As an amateur boxer, he fought in over 40 bouts, competing provincially, nationally and internationally.

The documentary is available to listen and for download on the BBC World Service website here.

Writing The Century - "Once Upon A Time"

The BBC Radio 4 series that explores the 20th century through the diaries and correspondence of real people, returns with "Once Upon A Time" by Amanda Whittington - a "touching, coming of age drama set in 1979 based on the diary of a gay teenager living in a Nottinghamshire mining town".

Based on the 1979 diary of an 18-year-old miner's son, "Once Upon A Time" is the story of three teenage boys looking for love and acceptance, each hoping for their own happy, "walk into the sunset" ending.

Steven lives with his father, who knows and accepts his son is gay. The rest of the world isn't quite so accommodating. It's January 1st. Steven feels "confused, excited and frightened" at what 1979 might bring. His best friends are Chrissy and Gloria, two unemployed boys of the same age, who are living down the road as girls and dreaming of a glamorous new life.

All three live for the weekend, when they go to Nottingham's only gay club in search of adventure. The club is like Oz to their Kansas existence but it has its dark side. What Steven really wants is a loving relationship but, in his world, it seems like an impossible dream.

1979 was a vintage year for pop. In the first week of January alone, the Top 40 featured YMCA, Le Freak, I'm Every Woman, Hanging on the Telephone, Rat Trap and I Love the Nightlife. Such classic songs are the soundtrack to the young friends' turbulent lives.

The programme (in 5 parts) is aired this week at the end of Woman's Hour at 10.45am and again in the evenings at 7.45. It is available online for a limited period of time, here.

Radio Drama: Turing’s Test

History Boys and Desperate Romantics star Samuel Barnett plays Second World War Enigma code breaker Alan Turing in a new radio drama part of a pioneering experiment between The Independent and award-winning production company Made in Manchester (MIM).

Turing’s Test is a fictional take on what might have been going through Turing’s mind in his dying moments after he’d eaten the apple laced with cyanide in 1954.

Just a few weeks ago, Alan Turing, often referred to as the father of modern computer science, received a posthumous apology from Prime Minister Gordon Brown for the persecution he suffered at the hands of the state for being gay in the 1950s.

In Turing’s Test, Alan is confronted by a ‘machine’ (played by Paul Kendrick – Consenting Adults, BBC4) about why he’s taken his life and about the future consequences of his pioneering computer work.

Roger Alton, Editor of The Independent, said: "Alan Turing was one of the great British heroes of the 20th Century, and whose death is a terrible scar on British justice. It is a great privilege to make this new drama available on The Independent website, and is part of the great tradition of innovation which has always characterised The Independent."

Turing’s Test is downloadable from The Independent website.

Turing’s Test is written by Phil Collinge and Andy Lord and stars Samuel Barnett as Alan Turing and Paul Kendrick as ‘the machine’. It is directed by Mike Heath and Neil Gardner and is produced by Ashley Byrne and Iain Mackness. It is a Made in Manchester/Dark Smile Production.

Talking About Lionel

Eddie Mair tells the story of Lionel Bart, a sensitive, talented and troubled artist through interviews with those who knew him intimately.

Lionel Bart was at one time the wunderkind of British musical theatre who reached dazzling heights of fame in the early 1960s with Britain’s most successful post-war musical – Oliver!. But, his tumultuous life went from triumph to disaster as he lost control of his fortune and his health seriously declined.

Eddie Mair takes to the streets of Whitechapel to hear the story of this impoverished son of a tailor who always maintained that without his Hebraic, left-wing, wartime upbringing there would have been no musicals. " Ollver! was a strange marriage of the Jewish music of my bar mitzvah, and the street cries of my childhood ." Lionel later observed, "Fagin’s music was a Jewish mother clucking away."

The Plotters were Lovers

Tuesday's radio 4 drama: The Babington Plot examines the doomed attempt to assassinate Queen Elizabeth I and restore a catholic monarchy.

The write-up says: At the centre of the story is the relationship between the "reluctant terrorist" Anthony Babington, whose youthful idealism was not matched by the required conviction, and his co-conspirator, Robert Poley, who persistently encouraged him and became his lover – but was, in fact, a government spy leading Babington to the gallows.

Through the eyes of witnesses, listeners can hear the tragic ambiguity of this relationship as it heads towards its final betrayal.
Furthermore, another conspirator, Thomas Salisbury, is played by Simon Barnett (the older Simon Doonan in Beautiful People).

The Babington Plot, which was aired on Radio 4 at 2.15pm, is available until 9 December on iPlayer here.

Transexuals in Iran is on BBC 2 on Monday 25th February 2008 at 9pm (The programme can be viewed online until next Monday here - duration: 60 min).

On 30 March, the London Lesbian and Gay Film Festival will also be showing two films on the subject. The Birthday and Shahram and Abbas, A rare glimpse inside Iranian society and its struggle with gender and sexuality (more information here).

The Interview: Graeme Le Saux

Graeme Le Saux is a footballer who had a successful career playing for top club Chelsea and representing England -- but he never felt like he fitted in to the British football culture. He wasn't keen on getting drunk or hanging out with his team-mates and he ended up receiving abuse from fans and players throughout his career who chanted gay slurs at him. For BBC World Service, he talks about the impact homophobia had on his life and what his experience says about "the beautiful game".

Camden Community Radio Reports on the Month

logos of the Camden Community Radio and the Camden LGBT ForumIn February 2007, the Camden LGBT Forum organised an event for almost every day of the month. Ben Cooper of the Camden Community Radio went along to the official launch of History Month in Camden, "Out in Camden 3", on 12 February. There he met up with the organisers and some of the guest speakers.

Keith Moffitt, the first openly gay leader of Camden Council, who opened the event talked to Ben about his experience as an openly gay man in politics.

Sue Sanders, co-chair of LGBT History Month and originator of the Month, explained how she got the idea of the Month and what she hopes to achieve through it.

Lou Hart, director of the Camden LGBT Forum, reminded Ben of the importance of celebrating our history which is too often hidden or lost.

Trainee Detective Constable and Community Safety Unit Officer for the Met Police, Emma Whitehead told of her personal experience both inside and outside the Force and encouraged people to report any hate crime they might be victims of.

Neil Mckenna, author of The Secret life of Oscar Wilde, recalled an encounter with prejudice when working as a journalist while Lindsay River, project coordinator for Polari, talks of society's reluctance to recognise that older people (straight or gay) can have sexual desires and of the lack of awareness with carer that there is such thing as older LGBT people.

Lou Hart concluded the programme by highlighting some of the 32 events forming the Froum's contribution to LGBT History Month 07 and the biggest programme of events in the country.

Noel Coward Play Rediscovered

85 years after it was written, The Better Half, a one act play e by Noel Coward, has been rediscovered in the archive of the British Library. The play, despite its suggestions that women had sexual feelings, had escaped the Lord Chamberlain's censure and had been performed in 1922, though it was never published.

The Better Half is being performed by The Sticking Place theatre company at the Union Theatre in Southwark (South London) between 16th October and 10th November as part of the company's Annual Horror Theatre Festival.

Highlighting the discovery of the play, BBC Radio 4's Woman's Hour, recently took a look at the women in Coward's life. The programme remains available online here.
