Jamaica: silent protest
Christian Concern / The Gleaner
In early April, a small group of Jamaicans
held a silent protest as others welcomed
President Barack Obama to the island, concerned at what they perceive as an advancing
of immoral ideologies by the US president.
All the members wore black t-shirts, with
varying messages. Some had the names of
US citizens who were either fired from their
jobs or otherwise
reprimanded
for
statements made against members of the lesbian,
gay, bisexual and transgender community.
