The untry's first lbian anizatn – Femist Lbian Collective Ayuquelen, found 1984 – was important to homosexual and femist rights and didn't seek to assiate to nservative society like s precsors. Rights anizatns had to not only fight discrimatn but also the stigma of the disease that was so accurately lked to the gay and lbian muny.

R Janeiro – wily nsired one of Lat Ameri's most LGBTQI-iendly neighborhoods – held Brazil's first Gay Pri para 1995, followed by Sao Plo 1997.

A BRIEF HISTORY OF LBIAN, GAY, BISEXUAL, AND TRANSGENR SOCIAL MOVEMENTS

Between 1980 and 2006, 2, 680 gays and lbians were murred Brazil for their sexual orientatn, and only 10 percent of their killers served jail time, acrdg to the Human Rights Lat Ameri Digt. By 2012, Brazil's gay and trans muny was livg a virtual state of emergency as one gay or trans beme a murr victim of homophobia every 24 hours. "In the last , Brazil looked to produce polici that uld protect vulnerable groups like gay and trans people, but they mostly failed due to lack of vtment or change visn of policy, " Jurema Werneck, executive director at Amnty Internatnal Brazil, told The Guardian January.
