A "s**t in" or sit in? When your school has over 200 gender specific restrooms, and you do not identify with either gender, what are you supposed to do? Umass Amherst did not have a safe space for gender fluid, trans, or gender neutral individuals. This photo shows a protestor occupying an administrative restroom while casually doing homework. This illustrates the need for gender fluid restrooms because protestors are willing to go against university rules to make their point come across.

AMHERST - A weeklong occupation of the restrooms in the University of Massachusetts Amherst administration building began Monday, with protesters demanding a speedy rollout of gender-neutral bathrooms across campus.

Gender Liberation UMass is occupying most of the bathroom stalls in Whitmore, home of the offices of the chancellor and other key administrators, in what they're calling a "S--t-in."

Protesters are demanding that the university quickly increase the number of gender-neutral bathrooms in campus buildings.

Gender-neutral bathrooms at UMass are currently limited to single-stall ones designed for use by those who are handicapped. Not every campus building has those bathrooms, which means that a safe bathroom is not always easily accessible. Plus, when someone without a disability must use those handicapped bathrooms, it takes those bathrooms away from those with disabilities, said Justin Kilian, one of the organizers.

"We're coming together to make a statement about the fact that there are so few bathrooms available to trans students," Kilian said.

Kilian said the group is hoping for two gender-neutral bathrooms on each floor of every building on campus.

The group has 135 people who have signed up for shifts for the rest of the week. They plan to have most stalls in Whitmore occupied, though they will leave at least the handicapped stall unoccupied in each restroom. About 30 people are needed at any given time for that to happen, according to Ann Schilling, another organizer.

"We plan on going until we get an official response," Schilling said.

Their other demands are that the university advance on-campus health services for transgender students and hire a professor in the Women, Gender and Sexuality Studies Department who is an expert in "the study of critical transmisogyny from an intersectional perspective."

Demonstrator Olly Kelly said that transmisogyny is the combination of "the opression of being trans and the opression of being a woman."

According to UMass spokesman Edward Blaguszewski, there are over 200 gender-inclusive, single-user restrooms on campus. Over the next year officials plan to add 50 more to that list.

"University officials regularly hold discussions with transgender students to discuss their concerns, and we will continue that engagement," he said in an email.

The university last year implemented a policy that stated that "should use the bathroom facilities that correspond to their sex or gender identity, or utilize bathrooms that are designated gender-neutral or gender-inclusive."

That policy affirms federal regulations regarding college bathrooms. Organizers said that some people have expressed annoyance with the bathroom occupation, though many people are either unfazed by it or eager to get involved. Kilian said the inconvenience of no stalls being available mirrors the inconvenience that some trans people face trying to find appropriate bathrooms.

"This is just a tiny taste of what it's like to be a trans student," Kilian said.

It also calls for a more severe state of public policies. The government proposed the chemical castration of rapists as a drastic measure to protect the human rights of the most defenseless.

On July 22nd, 23rd and 24th of 2019, thousands of Puertoricans took to the streets of San Juan as a public display of disappointment, disapproval, indignation and complete rejection of then governor Ricardo “Ricky” Rosello. On November of 2016, Rosello had a landslide victory over his four opponents for the governance of Puerto Rico. With the support of forty-one percent of the island’s voters he was entrusted with the task of leading the commonwealth and its people. Sadly, Rosello’s four year term did not come to completion, as he was forced by the People of Puerto Rico to resign from his position as governor just a little over a year before the end of his mandate. On July 9th, 2019 a series of chats in which the governor had explicit participation, were made public. Countless of texts that would become the beginning of the end of Rosello’s term. Aside from the derogatory comments in which Hurricane Maria victims were made fun of, women in politics belittled, name called and insulted, Ricky Rosello also talked about plans to discredit the media, sabotage political opponents and disclosed confidential information with non members of his cabinet or Puertorican politics for that matter. During the three day protest that unfortunately turned into night riots, allegedly provoked by the police and individuals paid by the government. The people of Puerto Rico demanded his resignation as the eyes of the world watched every televised second. Until the night of July 24th, 2019 when Ricardo Rosello Nevárez, Puerto Rico’s second youngest governor; became the first to be displaced by the people. In a true lesson to the world that the people are the true power behind the nations.

This was a march held in downtown Louisville Louisiana on the one year anniversary of Breonna Taylor’s death. Breonna Taylor’s mother is in the middle, holding the Breonna sign leading the march. This March was held also to demand for racial justice. For those who aren’t aware, 26 year old Breonna Taylor was killed by policemen in her apartment. About 7 policemen barged into her apartment to try and find someone who was involved in drug dealing firing shots that killed Breonna. Then shortly after, the police realized that the whole thing was a misunderstanding. Breonna and her boyfriend who was with her in the house that night have no criminal record and they found zero evidence of drugs in the apartment. I chose this picture because it represents a group of people standing for something that unfortunately this country is still experiencing. This photo is displayed in an article by Chloee Weiner who’s a journalist and it is on www.npr.org .

Women's Rights Movement also known by Women's Liberation Movement was the second wave of feminism. Started in the 1960's, this social movement focused on women's legal rights to politics, work, and sexuality. Right after the World War II, women's roles changed in their household and jobs. Jobs were no longer based on one's physical strength. These women rallied up and mainly fought for employment discrimination, maternity leave rights, child-care and tax deductions for child-care expenses, equal education, and much more. This movement means a lot to me because without women having a say in law making, and voting who would protect us and speak for us women when needed? It also means we have a little independence in the real world and not having to depend on men. I can imagine a lot of women in older generations staying in an unhappy marriages for the sake of being financially maintained by their husbands.

The image I chose is of the peaceful protests in Iceland following the financial crisis. The protest was a series of demonstrations that took place in Reykjavik, Iceland, on October 25 and 26, 2008. People protested outside the Icelandic Parliament Building and demanded that the government resign. This picture is a part of a video. The video has many pictures like this one, however I chose this one because it shows people protesting in Iceland. It shows a press photographer trying to get the best shots he can and then protesters trying to make their voices heard. They were upset about the economy and how their country was going to be affected by what was happening around the world in 2008. This image shows our connection through protesting, along with our differences in how we do things in different countries.

I chose this picture because it shows the protests throughout Iceland. This is an example of how protests can have a huge impact in different parts of the world. The most important part is to see protesters that are protesting together and their dedication to the cause. People were risking their lives, trying to make their voices heard. It is admirable that they took time out of their lives, and all in the name of a change they so desperately wanted.

The most interesting thing about this picture is how different it is in comparison to other pictures of protests. It shows that people took time out of their day and went out in the streets to protest. They were not afraid to make their voice heard, they wanted change and they were willing to do whatever they could to get it. The people are all coming together from all different walks of life. This shows that people want a better life for them and future generations.

This picture shows that people want to make a difference. They are using their voice and making sure they are heard. This is a form of social change because people are making themselves known and trying to make a statement at the same time. People took time out to protest, they wanted something different and they were taking things into their own hands. They were not going to sit back and let things happen without trying to make some changes. The picture shows the protest was peaceful showing them all coming together out of interest of wanting a change in their country.

In this image, members of the black panther movement are marching for black citizens' rights; their methods were controversial due to them carrying guns and responding with the same violence they were experiencing from police. Its members were known for being upfront and outspoken when they perceived injustice. They confronted politicians, protected black citizens, and challenged the authority of the police. They had "survival programs," which were community service programs that provided food, clothing, and transportation, especially for black communities, but they helped many. The programs helped transform today's public education and health care systems. Even though they challenged and stood up to police brutality and provided community help (education, transportation assistance, tuberculosis testing, and provided shoes to the poor), governmental bodies considered the Black Panther Party to be an enemy of the U.S government.

WASHINGTON - Folks from across the nation are banding together for CureFest, an annual, weekend-long event in D.C., to raise awareness about pediatric cancer.

During CureFest, representatives from pediatric cancer awareness foundations traveled to Capitol Hill to speak to lawmakers in hopes of getting increased research funding to find better treatments and, ultimately, cures for the various forms of childhood cancer.

Participants include "people who have children in treatment for cancer, people who have lost children to cancer, and there are a lot of people who are here who are just advocates, who don't actually have a child that has been impacted by cancer," said "Tattoo Tom" Mitchell, who was a single dad when his daughter Shayla was diagnosed with cancer at age 16.

For Shayla, they unfortunately ran out of treatment options. Tom said they had candid conversations about what his life might look like after she died.

"One of the things that she made me promise is that I would do everything in my power to help other families and other children that were in similar situations," he said.

Still Brave, the Fairfax County-based organization Tom founded in Shayla's memory, is one of many organizations represented at CureFest.

Rosa Parks was charged with civil disobedience and was arrested.
1st of December, 1955. Rosa Parks stood up for her beliefs, or rather, sat down for her beliefs. Parks, an African American woman, opted to ride the bus home from work on the evening of December 1, 1955. She was jailed for defying an Alabama statute requiring black people to cede seats to white people when the bus was full because she sat down and refused to give up her seat to a white passenger. (Black passengers had to sit in the back of the bus as well.) Her detention provoked a 381-day bus strike in Montgomery. It also resulted in a Supreme Court ruling in 1956 prohibiting segregation on public transportation.

# data[].attributes.body
The United Nations (UN) announced that since the Taliban came to power, the rights of women and girls in Afghanistan have been declining rapidly. The hopelessness of girls whose education is interrupted is also increasing in the country. Afghanistan Deputy Education Minister Abdul Hakim Hemat told the BBC that the ban on secondary education for girls continues.

"Not being able to read is like a death sentence," says 15-year-old Meena. She says that since her school in Bedahshan closed, she and her friends have been confused. Laila is 16 years old, who says "We have nothing to do but housework". His school in the city of Tahar was closed the day the Taliban came to power in August.

Afghan authorities had previously avoided describing the exclusion of girls from school as a direct ban. However, Abdul Hakim Hemat said that girls will not be able to go to secondary and high school until the resolutions to be taken in the new year are announced. Hemat, who is acting as Afghanistan's Deputy Minister of Education, stated that the inability of girls to continue their secondary education is a temporary situation that may change when new policies are determined. Hemat also stressed that girls should be separated from boys' classes so that they can study in a "safe environment". The Taliban has repeatedly stated that they will respect women's rights. However, the UN report stated that discrimination against women in Afghanistan has begun to normalize in all aspects of life. In the report, it was noted that families also restricted their own movements. Even before the Taliban came to power, Afghanistan was considered among the countries where women's rights were the worst.

The people of Russia are scared and ashamed. Thousands of Russians fled the streets to protest Putin, who is sparking potential of World War 3. Putin and the Russian Army are stone cold. They commit mass genocide on civilians, targeting schools with children in them, and even hospitals. This is extremely inhumane and a lot of the people in Russia do not support Putin's actions whatsoever. The Russo-Ukrainian War begun in February 2014, and recently steeply escalated on February 24th, 2022. In the picture above, you can see a young Russian man holding up a sign that says "We're Russians, we're ashamed, we don't support it." To the left we see an image of what appears to be a mix of Hitler and Putin. They are comparing Putin to Hitler, who's extremely inhumane acts sparked World War 2. This is so risky yet brave for the people of Russia, as Putin is a very frightening dictator and protestors are being put in jail and tortured for going against Putin's beliefs.

The movement against the involvement of the United States in the Vietnam War began in the U.S. with demonstrations in 1964 and grew in strength in later years. The U.S. became polarized between those who advocated continued involvement in Vietnam and those who wanted peace. Many in the peace movement were students, mothers, or anti-establishment hippies. Opposition grew with participation by the African-American civil rights, women's liberation, and Chicano movements, and sectors of organized labor.

The reasons behind American opposition to the Vietnam War fell into several main categories: opposition to the draft; moral, legal, and pragmatic arguments against U.S. intervention; and reaction to the media portrayal of the devastation in Southeast Asia.

Thousands of students in Tirana boycotted classes and marched from their faculties to the ministry building, urging the ministry to cut tuition fees and overturn the government's decision to pay for exams, along with other demands such as better living conditions in dormitories and greater involvement of students in the decision-making process. It was the largest protest the country had seen in years.  Students from public universities in other cities such as Durrës, Shkodra, Elbasan, and Korça joined student protests that began in Tirana by boycotting lectures and gathering in the streets.

This was the day that Martin Luther King delivered his famous “I have a dream” speech. This march was credited to support the Civil rights Act in 1963. Organizers of the march, and a few members of congress met with President John F. Kennedy to discuss the social movement going on that was largely credited to Martin Luther King, in a fight for equality for all Black people. More than 200,000 supporters marched on behalf of African Americans and the prejudices/injustices they were facing during that time. It aimed to draw attention at the continuing challenges many African Americans faced, while some were convinced that “progress” was still being made. Amongst other things the people really wanted to highlight economic inequalities, new federal job programs, and a raise in the minimum wage. It then expanded to include the integration of public schools, the passing of the Civil Rights Act, etc.

This picture is a protest that occurred in spring 2018. This protest was about equality regardless of whether you're documented or not. Now by equality I mean if you're not a citizen in the US, you should be able to have healthcare even if you're not from here. What caused this movement was a 10-year-old girl who needed surgery but was detained by immigration with her mom because they were undocumented. This storyline ended up getting attention from the media and many argued that it's unfair because of how immigrants get treated and how if they wanted to keep getting mistreated they would've stayed back where they were originally from with all their struggles.

In this picture women including little girls are wearing hijabs. In Iran, it is mandatory that women and girls are to wear a hijab at all times, or face punishment. Even in sports teams women must wear a hijab. In response to the strict rules by the Islamic Government, a Facebook page, named My Stealthy Freedom, was created by Iranian Journalist and Activist Masih Alinejad in 2014. Alinejad created this page and encourages Iranian women to take photos of themselves or videos taking their hijabs off their heads. This is despite the government threatening these women of facing ten years for their offense.

Iranian women are sharing videos of themselves removing their headscarves in public, despite a recent ruling they could face 10 years in jail for doing so.

Masih Alinejad, an Iranian journalist and prominent activist based in the US, started a social media campaign in 2014 encouraging women in Iran to share self-portraits without the Islamic veil, which she then goes on to share on her Facebook page called "My Stealthy Freedom".

Ms Alinejad said campaigners had carried on sending her pictures and videos even after Tehran's Revolutionary Court ruled they could face up to 10 years in prison on Monday.

"Today I have received lots of videos from inside Iran. And women in these videos are braver and angrier than before," she said.

Ms Alinejad said Iran's government was "scared of women practising civil disobedience and engaging in peaceful protest".

Wearing the Islamic headscarf is compulsory in public for all women in Iran - with those who do not wear a hijab, or are seen to be wearing a "bad hijab" by allowing some of their hair to show, facing punishments spanning from fines to imprisonment.

Female athletes have to wear the hijab during competitions.

Amnesty International says women and girls are regularly stopped in the street by morality police and vigilantes.

The head of Tehran's Revolutionary Court said those sharing protest videos with Ms Alinejad - who Tehran considers to be acting on behalf of the US - could be jailed for up to a decade under laws relating to cooperation with an enemy state.

"All those women who send the video footage of removing their hijab to her will be sentenced to between one to 10 years of jail," Musa Ghazanfarabadi told the semi-official Fars news agency.

According to Amnesty International, at least 39 women were arrested last year in connection with anti-hijab protests.

Raha Bahreini, a researcher at the human rights organisation who specialises in Iran, said the country's laws are written in a "very broad and vague manner" and this can be used by courts to increase penalties for women's rights protesters.

She said: "This is a distressing pattern which shows that they want to increase their crackdown on this peaceful movement and they want to punish those who dare to defy compulsory veiling laws with very severe penalties".

Last year, an Iranian woman was sentenced to two years in prison and 18 years of probation for removing her headscarf in a protest.

Shaparak Shajarizadeh said she had been sentenced for "opposing the compulsory hijab" and "waving a white flag of peace in the street".

There has been mounting resistance to the enforced hijab over recent years in Iran - with some women shaving their hair and dressing as men. Many women are opposed to being forced to cover their heads and protesters have removed their hijabs and twirled them on sticks in defiance.

Women's rights are severely restricted in Iran. Iranian women have been barred from watching stadium football matches for most of the 40 years since the Islamic Revolution. The clerical regime has been reported to have hired security forces since August last year to deal with women who attempt to sneak into the stadium with men's make-up.

Some 60 per cent of Iranian women have experienced domestic violence at least once in their life, according to official data.

Last year, Iranian state TV was forced to apologise for a segment which featured a relationship expert tell domestic violence victims to kiss their husband's feet.

"Even if your husband is a drug addict, if he beats you, just do it and you will see a miracle in your life," the expert was said to have told viewers.

The woman, whose advice was roundly mocked on social media, told spouses to "slowly give him a foot massage" and then "kiss his feet".

She said this would relieve a husband's stress and help prevent strokes and heart attacks.

This picture took place at the National March on Washington for Lesbian and Gay Rights in 1979. In the summer of 1969, at a seedy bar in New York City, the Stonewall Inn was raided by the police. This was the breaking point for the LGBT community. In the next ten years, the LGBT community began to organize a march in Washington. The march was to raise awareness and to support one another. Harvey Milk, the first openly gay elected official, the City Supervisor for San Francisco, organized the march. Milk was assassinated before the march took place. This caused devastation, and motivated by his plea for the LGBT community to come out of the closet, approximately 100,000 people came out to march on October 14, 1979, in Washington, D.C.

The bolsonaro government is a far-right presidency whose policies are now making towns and cities responsible for providing medical services to indigenous people, this is instead of the federal government being held responsible, which requires communities to be visited by specially trained professionals. Indigenous people now worry that local authors lack the infrastructure to do effectively. The protesters sand and danced around the Special Secretariat of Indigenous Health, known as Sesai for almost 10 hours.

I chose this picture because you can see many non African-Americans fighting for equal rights and to end police brutality against black people. The white Americans present or any person who is not black being there shows that there are people who care, there are people who also want to see the change, there are people willing to break this cycle that is called racism. These are the people that along with our fellow African-Americans will change not just our nation but the world. It will change the hearts of many and the future generations to come will not see color but will see humans and will see them all equal. I was very moved by this image, they did what a lot of people including myself want to and should have done.

# data[].attributes.body
The picture showcases a growing number of countries are being legalizing the same-sex marriage amid the rights for LGBTQ+ youth, unfortunately there are some opposition that remains strong in many countries. Here are the following highlights you might seen in this article: (1) More than two dozen of countries legalized the same-sex marriage, specifically the Western Europe Region. (2) Costa Rica is one of the latest country that legalize same-sex marriage. (3) Due to expansion of LGBTQ+ rights around the globe it has been uneven lately such as banning the same-sex relationship with some of the remaining countries.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Introduction

Thirty-three countries, including the United States, have legalized same-sex marriage, and some others recognize same-sex civil unions. Yet same-sex marriage remains banned in many countries, and the expansion of broader LGBTQ+ rights has been uneven globally. International organizations, including the United Nations, have issued resolutions in support of LGBTQ+ rights, but human rights groups say these organizations have limited power to enforce them.

International Norms, Democracy, and LGBTQ+ Rights

Rights monitors find a strong correlation between LGBTQ+ rights and democratic societies; the research and advocacy group Freedom House lists nearly all the countries with marriage equality-when same-sex couples have the same legal right to marriage as different-sex couples-as "free." "Wherever you see restrictions on individuals-in terms of speech, expression, or freedom of assembly-you see a crackdown on LGBT rights," says Julie Dorf, senior advisor to the Council for Global Equality, a Washington-based group that promotes LGBTQ+ rights in U.S. foreign policy. "It's the canary in the coal mine," she says.

Javier Corrales, a professor at Amherst College who focuses on LGBTQ+ rights in Latin America, points to income levels and the influence of religion in politics, as well as the overall strength of democracy, to explain regional divergences [PDF].

The UN Human Rights Council, expressing "grave concern" over violence and discrimination against individuals based on sexual orientation and gender identity, commissioned the body's first study on the topic [PDF] in 2011. In 2014, the council passed a resolution to combat anti-LGBTQ+ violence and discrimination. Two years later, the United Nations appointed its first-ever independent expert on sexual orientation and gender identity. "What is important here is the gradual building of consensus," says Graeme Reid, director of the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender rights program at Human Rights Watch. "There's an accumulation of moral pressure on member states to at least address the most overt forms of discrimination or violence."

Activists have focused on antiviolence and antidiscrimination campaigns rather than marriage equality. "There's no sensible diplomat who would think that pushing same-sex marriage on a country that's not ready for it is a good idea," says Dorf. She adds that not all countries with marriage equality allow same-sex couples to jointly adopt and cautions against equating the right to marry with freedom from discrimination. Still, antidiscrimination laws are gaining traction worldwide. In 2020, eighty-one countries and territories, including some that retain sodomy laws, had protections against employment discrimination [PDF] based on gender identity or sexual orientation.

United States

In 2015, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in Obergefell v. Hodgesthat the Constitution grants same-sex couples the right to marry. The 5-4 ruling effectively legalized same-sex marriage in the thirteen states where it remained banned and extended to U.S. territories. In 2022, amid fears that the Supreme Court could rule to let states deny the validity of same-sex marriages, Congress passed and President Joe Biden signed into law the Respect for Marriage Act, which recognizes such marriages at the federal level. That year, 71 percent of Americans polled approved of same-sex marriage, up from 27 percent in 1996.

Despite the increase in public support for same-sex marriage, debate continues between advocates of legal equality and individuals and institutions that object to marriage equality on the basis of religious belief. In 2018, the Supreme Court ruled in favor of a Colorado baker who refused to make a wedding cake for a same-sex couple because of his religious beliefs, violating the state's civil rights law. However, the court chose not to issue a broader ruling on whether businesses have a right to deny goods or services to LGBTQ+ people for religious reasons. In 2020, the court ruled that a 1964 civil rights law prohibiting sex discrimination in the workplace also applies to discrimination based on sexual orientation or gender identity. The ruling protected LGBTQ+ employees from being fired in more than half of states where no such legal protections previously existed.

However, the Supreme Court's decision in 2022 to overturn Roe v. Wade, a case that used the fourteenth amendment to protect the right to have an abortion, sparked some concerns that it would similarly overturn its 2015 decision on marriage equality.In his concurring opinion on the 2022 ruling, Justice Clarence Thomas wrote that Obergefell v. Hodges was " demonstrably erroneous " and that the court had a duty to overrule this and other decisions.

Europe

More than half of the countries that have marriage equality are in Western Europe. Same-sex marriage has been legalized in the Netherlands (2001), Belgium (2003), Spain (2005), Norway (2009), Sweden (2009), Portugal (2010), Iceland (2010), Denmark (2012), France (2013), the United Kingdom (2013), Luxembourg (2015), Ireland (2015), Finland (2017), Malta (2017), Germany (2017), Austria (2019), and Switzerland (2021). In Italy, the parliament approved civil unions for same-sex couples in 2016, but same-sex marriage is not legal. Lawmakers in Andorra voted in 2022 to convert all same-sex civil unions to civil marriages and legalize same-sex marriage. The changes will take effect in early 2023. Meanwhile, Slovenia made history in 2022 as the first country of the former Yugoslavia to legalize marriage and adoption for same-sex couples.

"More than half of the countries that have marriage equality are in Western Europe."

The EU does not require its members to recognize same-sex marriage, though a 2018 ruling [PDF] by the EU's top court says they must uphold same-sex couples' rights to freedom of movement and residence. In 2021, the court ruled that all EU countries must recognize children of same-sex couples, even countries that do not have marriage equality. The ruling came after Bulgaria refused to grant identity documents to the daughter of a same-sex couple. A 2013 European Parliament report on human rights and democracy "encourages" EU institutions and member states to recognize same-sex marriage or civil unions as "a political, social and human and civil rights issue " [PDF]; however, the EU is not able to impose such policy changes on its members.

Americas

In 2005, Canada became the first country in the Western Hemisphere to legalize same-sex marriage. It was followed by Argentina in 2010, Brazil and Uruguay in 2013, Mexico in 2015, Colombia in 2016, Ecuador in 2019, Costa Rica in 2020, and Chile in 2021. The only Central American country to recognize same-sex couples is Costa Rica, though some others in the region have limited antidiscrimination protections.

Support for marriage equality varies across the region. According to a 2016 survey [PDF] by the International LGBTI Association (ILGA), 54 percent of Canadians, 48 percent of Chileans, and 57 percent of Argentines were in favor of legalizing same-sex marriage. In Central America, support was much lower: 33 percent of Costa Ricans, 28 percent of Nicaraguans, and 27 percent of Ecuadorians supported legalizing it. In 2018, the Inter-American Court of Human Rights ruled in favor of marriage equality, but the decision has not spurred much action among member states.

Support for legalizing same-sex marriage also remains low in the Caribbean, at just 16 percent in Jamaica and 23 percent in the Dominican Republic, according to the ILGA. Bermuda, a British territory, legalized domestic partnerships for same-sex couples in 2017, but the government fought to reissue a ban. Same-sex marriage remains illegal there. However, in 2022, Antigua and Barbuda, Bermuda, and St. Kitts and Nevis struck down laws criminalizing gay sex.

The governments of Bolivia, Honduras, Nicaragua, and Paraguay have enacted constitutional bans on same-sex marriage. Although Brazil has legalized same-sex marriage, in 2019, then-President Jair Bolsonaro removed the Human Rights Ministry's ability to consider LGBTQ+ concerns. He drew criticism from LGBTQ+ advocacy groups during his campaign over homophobic remarks.

Cuba, where homosexuality was once punished by internment in forced-labor camps, has changed markedly in recent years. The National Assembly passed an antidiscrimination law in 2013, and a new constitution in 2019 removed language defining marriage as between a man and a woman. In September 2022, voters approved a referendum legalizing same-sex marriage.

Pacific Rim

Australia and New Zealand are the only Pacific Rim countries in which same-sex marriage is legal. Same-sex marriage became legal in Taiwan in 2019, as the legislature implemented a ruling the top court issued two years earlier. In China, 43 percent of people supported legalizing same-sex marriage in 2021.

In 2022, a court in Seoul, South Korea, ruled against recognizing same-sex partnerships and rejected a same-sex couple's claim to spousal health insurance, even though public opinion supports antidiscrimination legislation. More than a third of people in South Korea supported legalizing same-sex marriage in 2021.

"Australia and New Zealand are the only Pacific Rim countries in which same-sex marriage is legal."

Lawmakers in Thailand and Vietnam have considered bills to legalize same-sex marriage or civil partnerships. However, in 2021, Thailand's Constitutional Court ruled that the nation's marriage law-which only recognizes marriage between a man and a woman-does not violate the constitution. The country's parliament is considering two proposals that will essentially give lawmakers a choice between permitting civil partnerships for same-sex couples and allowing them to marry. In the Philippines, President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. has said that if there is popular support for same-sex unions, it is up to lawmakers to legalize it. However, he has maintained his own opposition to same-sex marriage.

South and Central Asia

There is little information on public attitudes toward homosexuality in South and Central Asia. ILGA found 35 percent of Indians and 30 percent of Pakistanis in 2016 thought same-sex marriage should be legal. Support in Kazakhstan stood at 12 percent.

Support for same-sex marriage has historically been low in Afghanistan. According to a 2022 Human Rights Watch report, the Taliban's takeover in 2021 "dramatically worsened" LGBTQ+ people's lives, with individuals reporting attacks, sexual assaults, and direct threats against them or their families.

Middle East and North Africa

In 2018, Lebanese courts set a potential precedent for the decriminalization of gay sex, but the country continued to crack down on peaceful LGBTQ+ gatherings in 2021 and banned them outright in 2022.

Israel recognizes same-sex marriages performed in other countries, but a bill that would have legalized same-sex marriages failed to pass in the Knesset, Israel's legislative assembly, in 2018. Same-sex couples enjoy civil benefits, including residency permits for the partners of Israeli citizens, and they were granted the right to use surrogates to have children in 2022.

Israel stands apart from its neighbors in public attitudes toward same-sex couples: according to the 2016 ILGA survey, 49 percent of Israelis said same-sex marriage should be legal, compared to 19 percent of respondents in the United Arab Emirates, 16 percent in Egypt, and 14 percent in both Jordan and Morocco.

Sub-Saharan Africa

South Africa is the only sub-Saharan African country where same-sex couples can marry. The parliament legalized same-sex marriage in 2006, less than a decade after the constitutional court struck down laws banning sex between men. The postapartheid constitution was the world's first to protect people on the basis of sexual orientation, though the 2016 ILGA poll found only 40 percent of South Africans were in favor of legalizing same-sex marriage, and human rights monitors have reported failures by security forces to uphold rights of lesbians and transgender men.

"South Africa is the only sub-Saharan African country where same-sex couples can marry."

Same-sex relations are illegal on much of the continent and are punishable by death in Mauritania and Sudan, as well as in parts of Nigeria and Somalia. Polling by Afrobarometer between 2016 and 2018 found that 78 percent [PDF] of Africans across thirty-four countries were intolerant of homosexuality. Although the African Union's human rights commission adopted a resolution condemning violence against LGBTQ+ people in 2014, a group of African nations attempted to suspend the appointment of a UN expert charged with investigating anti-LGBTQ+ discrimination in 2016. In Ghana, where same-sex relations are an imprisonable offense, draft legislation would make identifying as gay or an LGBTQ+ ally a felony.

However, there have been recent advances: the Afrobarometer poll found that majorities in three countries in addition to South Africa-Cape Verde, Mauritius, and Namibia-are tolerant of homosexuality. In 2015 Mozambique decriminalized same-sex relations, followed by the Seychelles in 2016, Angola and Botswana in 2019, and Gabon in 2020. And in recent years, courts in Kenya, Uganda, and Zambia have ruled in favor of LGBTQ+ advocacy groups.

The umbrella movement started in Hong Kong in 2014 because they demanded that they be able to pick their own leaders.

Thousands of people, many of them were students, gathered in the streets to demand the right to completely free presidential elections. "The Umbrella Movement" was named after protestors who used umbrellas to shield themselves from police tear gas.

This is a picture of LGBTQ+ activists protesting in response to a police raid at the Stonewall Inn in New York in 1969, which at the time was a notorious gay bar. While police raids were common at locations where the patrons were part of the LGBTQ+ community, this raid in particular became out of control and turned violent, sparking several spontaneous demonstrations such as the one pictured and giving the LGBTQ+ liberation movement some momentum. I found this picture in an article on the Stonewall riot and subsequent protests posted on The Guardian, which I included in the caption. These protests and the movement in general eventually lead to the legalization of gay marriage and countless other steps toward equality for those in the LGBTQ+ community.

This rally was organized in New York City after multiple cases of violence against Asian communities took headlines on social media. We can see members of the Asian communities begging for security and the government to take initiative to end violence against Asian Americans.

This picture is from an article named “No New Youth Jail.” On march 2 dozens of Seattle protesters from No New Youth Jail, Youth Undoing Institutional Racism, etc blocked the intersection in front of King County Executive Dow Constantine’s office for many hours, chained themselves together with metal pipes, decrying the latter’s support of a $210 million-dollar youth jail under construction in the city. While demanding a stop to the construction of the youth jail, the protesters urged the government and those associated with the officials to stop focusing on the construction of prisons and instead invest in community-based solutions that benefit the affected youth. The disorderly essence of the action, as well as the chained protesters, drew massive media attention to the issue, pushing widespread discussion and debate on the costly youth jail and the movement to end it.  The protesters who were involved considered the action to be highly successful.

Line 3 is one of many oil pipelines being installed through indigenous lands with out their permission. These lines pose a threat to safe water supplies for those living in the area. Building new lines and placing them through indigenous lands is not only disrespectful, and a safety hazard but it is also a step backwards in the fight against climate change. I found this imagine on the stop line 3 website. It is from a protest held on November 10th 2021 in Minnesota. Below I attached their website if you'd like to learn more about the movement and how you can help. https://www.stopline3.org/news/cop26-un-panelvideo

This photo was taken from an article titled "Migration as a Social Movement." This social movement aims to alleviate discrimination towards immigrants and to push for change. "Governments throughout the West frequently draw on the rhetoric of deterrence and propose punitive border enforcement measures to dramatize claims that these border crossers pose a national security threat and are responsible for increased crime and violence". The government does not consider the valid reasons for why immigrants leave their home countries and come to America, such as economic and political issues, as well as a desire for a better standard of living and educational opportunities.

It started in November 2019, on the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women.   Outside the Supreme Court in Santiago del Chile, a group of women organized a flash mob to bring attention to the role the government plays in reproducing and supporting gender-based violence.  Quickly the song went viral and become a feminist anthem.  Women from all over the world started organizing similar protests, gathering, dancing, chanting, "El Violador Eres Tu".  Watch the video that started it all and google videos from around the world.  Source:  https://www.lifegate.com/the-rapist-is-you-un-violador-en-tu-camino
