Dear Luc, Thank you for taking action! Right now, at least 77 countries make it a crime to be gay or transgender - in 10, you can be sentenced to death or life in prison. For people like Aderonke, fleeing to another country can be the only option. We could ensure that the UK provides fair and safe assessment for LGBT people, if enough of us speak out now. We need your help to push that change forward, faster. If you think everyone, everywhere should have an equal chance at love - and life - please take a moment to tell your friends, family or colleagues to join you. It only takes a few seconds and could make a huge difference: Will you ask your friends and family to sign now? Or forward the email below the dotted line. Thanks for going All Out. Best, Andre, Hayley, Jeremy, Pablo, Sara, and the rest of the All Out team. Forward below the line: --------------------------- Dear friend, Aderonke's family was killed and she was arrested, tortured, and sentenced to death in Nigeria for being a lesbian. She fled to safety in the UK. She went through a humiliating interrogation by UK officials who didn't believe she's a lesbian. Aderonke's waiting to hear from a judge who could decide to send her back any day now. She could be killed. But there's still a chance to help her. The UK Home Office just announced that the process they use for lesbian, gay, bi and trans asylum cases like this is degrading – but so far no changes have been made. If thousands of us speak out right now, we can create a massive media story that could convince the Home Office to take the next logical step and halt the deportations. Will you sign the petition to Home Office Secretary Theresa May now? https://www.allout.org/aderonke | ||||
