Show Notes

Times are changing for LGBT Africans.

In Angola, being in a same-sex relationship is no longer a crime, thanks to a new law that has just come into force.

And yet, well-rooted beliefs mean that life for the LGBT community there won’t change overnight.

For long, LGBT Africans have struggled to come together and have their voices heard.

But social media has finally provided them with a space to do so.

In this second special episode, we hear from the people using those platforms.
