FlorEZ de Mayo 2011: Stop Murders of LGBT! Pass the Anti-Discrimination Law!

HUNDREDS of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) activists and their allies marked the traditional Flores de Mayo parade with calls for justice and equality for the LGBT. Dubbed the "KAGANDAHAN, KALUSUGAN at KARAPATAN FlorEZ De Mayo Pride 2011."

The militant advocates of ProGay Philippines are joining the FlorEZ de Mayo to push for the Anti-Discrimination Act of 2010 or House Bill 1483, a proposal filed in Congress by Bayan Muna Rep. Teddy Casino with the aim of banning discriminatory acts against LGBT residents in the workplace, schools and government offices.

Also causing grave concern among human rights workers is the spate of unexplained cruel deaths of largely transgender people in the past decade.
