Message from Phyll Opoku-Gyimah, GMB Shout! Committee Member and Director of UK Black Pride:
To GMB Shout! Committee and Friends,
I met with Alice Nkom on behalf of UK Black Pride in October and it was a real privilege. UK Black Pride (http://www.ukblackpride.org.uk/), Justice for Gay Africans (http://www.jfga.org.uk/) and other organisations agreed to work with her on her campaign for justice.
All Out has just posted the following: We just received the below message from Jean-Claude and 6 other Cameroonians - imprisoned just for being gay. They are silenced in their own country - but you can help them reclaim their voice. Stand with Jean Claude now: http://allout.org/cameroon
January 3, 2011
Although you've accompanied us with a lot of sadness, you've especially shown us a lot of kindness, love and determination throughout this year. We exhort you to never give up in to the discouragement and to never weaken in your mobilization for us and for the LGBT cause.
Because your support represents for LGBT in Cameroon in general and specially for us who are in prison - the HOPE. The HOPE to be one day, released from the PRISON in which we've been thrown, but also the HOPE that one day, LGBT people can walk quite freely in Cameroon, without any humiliation.
We wish you, from the bottom of our heart, to be of happy, healthy and that the coming year be full of promises and success.
Happy New Year from Cameroon,
Jean Claude Roger MBEDE (With Barrister Alice N'Kom on the picture),
Singha Jonas, Ndome Ndome Frankie, Ombwa Joseph Magloire, Tiomela
Lontsie Emma, Ntamack Nicolas, and Ntsama Séraphin.
Please take some time out to sign the petition, email others, share it on Facebook and tweet it: http://allout.org/cameroon
Kind Regards,
Phyll
