4. Bölüm: Taking Pride in Turkey's LGBTQ+ Movement
Homosexuality has never been illegal in the Turkish Republic. And yet to this day, holding a picnic, waving a rainbow flag, or expressing your identity out loud can draw a violent police crackdown.
This week -- the last week of Pride Month -- we talked to Öner Ceylan from Lambda Istanbul. They were the first LGBTQ+ organization in Turkey and have led the charge to give queer people in the country both a safe space and visibility.
To support or join them, you can check out their website www.lambdaistanbul.org or follow them on social media @LambdaIstanbul
Happy listening and happier Pride!
