» Beginnings…

Five men appeared in South African court this week for their alleged role in the murder of lesbian soccer player Eudy Simelane. One of the men, who had been seen with Simelane earlier in the night, said he has a confession, but has yet to give it up. Activist Vanessa Ludwig of the Triangle Project lamented Simelane's death, but also looked at the larger picture: "Black lesbians are still marginalized and victimized by heterosexual men who claim exclusive rights to women’s bodies.Our fight and activism to eradicate homophobia and prejudice from society has only just begun!"
