A viral video shows Ghanaian musician and LGBTQ+ advocate, Deborah Vanessa, also known as Sister Derby seated among a panel, addressing students of North Legon Little Angels school, emphasizing the existence of different sexual identities beyond male and female.
She advocated for acceptance and discouraged discrimination based on how individuals are born, drawing parallels to racial discrimination.
Parliament approved the Proper Human Rights and Family Values Bill, commonly known as the anti-gay bill.
The bill criminalizes and proscribes LGBT+ activities, including their promotion, advocacy, and funding, with penalties ranging from six months to three years for individuals involved and three to five years for promoters and sponsors.
Now awaiting President Akufo-Addo's endorsement to become law, the bill has sparked widespread debate and controversy regarding human rights and LGBTQ+ issues in Ghana.
Throwback to when Deborah Vanessa visited the North Legon Little Angels School and was schooling the children on issues relating to LGBTQ, and how they should be tolerant and accepting of people who identify as such.
