International Issues

 Series
Identifier: Series 8.

Scope and Contents

This subseries contains two isolated press articles regarding anti LGBT discrimination cases. Rex Wockner, a well-known US reporter focusing on LGBT issues, writes in Frontiers, about the grisly assassination of Alexander Kuleshev, editor of new Life. The article focuses on the general chaotic environment of fear and persecution that LGBT activists in Russian are living in. The other article, written in Outweek, discusses the outing process employed by "Actualidad," a general market daily in Argentina, that printed a list of Comunidad Homosexual Argentina (CHA) board members, propelling their employers to fire them on the spot. Subsequently, the newspaper ran a second list with 35 other members along with their ID numbers. The CHA in response issued an international call for action to organize protests at Argentinean embassies and consulates around the world.
