ʻAʻole kū ʻole ke kāne i ka barbados. ʻO ka mea i nīnau ʻia e pili ana i kahi kānāwai antiquated e kūʻē i ka sodomy aʻu i ʻike ʻole ai i hoʻokō ʻia. Nui nā ʻāina a puni ka honua, e like me Kanada a me kekahi mau mokuʻāina ma ka US, he mau kānāwai like i hoʻopau ʻole ʻia. I ka launa pū ʻana me ʻelua mau hui kuleana LGBT, B-GLAD a me Equals, Inc., ʻo mākou ma ke ʻano he lāhui, e hoʻomau i ka holomua i kēia mau kuleana kuleana kanaka nui. ʻO ka lua o ka hebedoma Pride Week ma barbados e mālama ʻia ma Nowemapa 24.
He mau hoaaloha koʻu ma ka kaiāulu LGBT e kipa pinepine aku iā Barbados, i nā manawa he nui i kēlā me kēia makahiki a ʻike iā ia ma ke ʻano o ko lākou home ʻelua - Ke kope nei hoʻi au ma Karyl Leigh Barnes ʻo ia kekahi lālā o SATW a he hoa hui pū nō hoʻi ma kā mākou keʻena pili lehulehu o moʻo'ōlelo, Development Counsellors International.
Ua hele mai kahi lālā SATW ʻo Bea Broda i kahi hopena hoihoi:
ʻIke wau he ʻāpana hapa hapa kēia, a ʻoi aku ka mea i hiki ke hana ʻia e hōʻoki maoli i ke kānāwai mai nā puke. Manaʻo wau hiki i ka mana o kekahi mau hoʻomana ke pale i kēia, a manaʻo ka poʻe ʻo ka mālama ʻana i ke kūlana ke koho ʻoi loa. "
ʻO ka hopena no nā luna kānāwai ʻo Barbados: mai hoʻomau i kāu mai noi mai haʻi i nā kulekele a lawe i kēia mau kānāwai mai nā puke aku, no laila ʻaʻole hiki ke hoʻokō ʻia.
