Is entrenched homophobia or heterosexism that mak difficult to accept LGBT people as fed by anythg other than some perceived nduct? “By beg Christian, I adhere to the prcipl and the Word, and if the Bible tells me that homosexualy is wrong, I have to accept that as te, ” said Jon.

Jon reerated several tim that her relig beliefs ma her sist that homosexualy was a choice and drew fire om much of the dience, the rt of the panel, and even Montgomery, the form of ntued proddg at her facts. Much of the eveng’s ntentn me when she was challenged repeatedly about her fundamentalist terpretatn of Levic and other Bible passag she emed nmnatory of homosexuals. “I know what discrimatn feels like om both ends, and I know feels the same way when I’m discrimated agast as a black man as when I’m discrimated agast as a gay man.

“The black muny wants to separate self om the lbian, gay, bi and trans muny bee they believe…that there is somethg immoral about , and that somehow that will tat the sancty of the civil rights movement.

DONMAR PANEL DISCSN TO VTIGATE 20 YEARS OF GAY RIGHTS

The vlence and discrimatn directed at people jt bee they were lbian, gay, bisexual or transgenr was a monumental sta on the llective nscience, and a vlatn of ternatnal law to which the Human Rights Council mt rpond. The Secretary-General told those who were lbian, gay, bisexual and transgenr persons that they were not alone, that he stood bi them, and that the stggle to end vlence and discrimatn was a shared one. In an openg statement, High Commissner for Human Rights Navi Pillay said a clear pattern had emerged of targeted vlence and discrimatn, all regns of the world, directed at people bee they eher were, or were perceived to be, lbian, gay, bisexual or transgenr, and the High Commissner gave exampl of reported cints which clud targeted killgs, vlent asslts, homophobic harassment of children and acts of torture cludg sexual vlence.

The Universal Declaratn of Human Rights did not exclu any dividual or groups, and certaly not lbian, gay, bisexual and transsexual persons. Hans Ytterberg, Chairperson of the Council of Europe Expert Commtee on Discrimatn on Ground of Sexual Orientatn and Genr Inty, speakg as a panellist, said threats and vlence formed part of the everyday liv of lbian, gay, bisexual and transgenr persons, as well as vlatns to their right to a private life, eedom of exprsn, peaceful assembly, to work, or to tn. Ira Karla Bacci, Vice-Print, Natnal Council for Lbian, Gay, Bisexual And Transgenr Persons Brazil, speakg as a panellist, said that today 76 untri still had laws which crimalized same-sex relatns between nsentg adults.

Other speakers said that was time for the Human Rights Council to velop a monorg mechanism to addrs the suatn of lbian, gay, bisexual and transgenr persons.

GAY RIGHTS AS HUMAN RIGHTS

The followg non-ernmental anizatns also took the floor: Human Rights Instutns om the Uned Kgdom, Stland, Germany, Atralia, New Zealand, Mongolia, Greece, Ecuador and France a jot statement, The Internatnal Lbian and Gay Associatn, The Internatnal Commissn of Jurists, CUC Netherlands, the Jot Uned Natns Programme on HIV/AIDS and Canadian HIV Legal Network. There was a pattern of vlence and discrimatn directed at people jt bee they were lbian, gay, bisexual or transgenr; people were imprisoned, tortured and even killed.

NAVI PILLAY, High Commissner for Human Rights, said she was nsc of the divergent view both wh and outsi the Council on the rights of dividuals based on sexual orientatn and genr inty, but was time to acknowledge that terrible vlence and discrimatn had been perpetrated agast lbian, gay, bisexual and transgenr people.
