šŸšØ Demanding Marriage Equality & Equal Rights is not a crime! Today, twenty (20) LGBTIQ+ activists šŸ³ļøā€šŸŒˆ including our Human Rights Campaign Advisor & LGBTIQ+ activist, Nada Chaiyajit; our Board Member & LGBTIQ+ activist Sirisak Chaited; Sulaiporn Chonwilai and Supecha Baotip from Tamtang Group, rejected all allegations of violating the state of emergency under COVID-19 when they took the stage at the #MarriageEquality protest at Ratchaprasong Intersection in Bangkok on 28 November 2021. They rightly exercised their fundamental right to freedom of assembly! #ąø”ą¹‡ąø­ąøšąøŖąø”ąø£ąøŖą¹€ąø—ą¹ˆąø²ą¹€ąø—ąøµąø¢ąø”


āš ļø They attended a Bangkok police station today after being summoned earlier this month after protesting against the homophobic verdict issued by the Constitutional Court claiming that #MarriageEquality would be against "natural order" and comparing LGBTIQ+ individuals to animals. All activists took a strong stance against such discriminatory treatment and have fought for human rights of the LGBTIQ+ community āœŠ The excuse of the police that the protest was against COVID-19 regulations does not fool anyone!


šŸ³ļøā€šŸŒˆ @manushyafoundation calls on Thai authorities to immediately stop all forms of harassment against LGBTI activists! We stand in solidarity with the overall LGBITQ+ community in Thailand. We believe that as Equal Human Beings, we all deserve to love and be loved, regardless of our sexual orientation or gender identity! āœŠšŸ¼ Join the call to legalize marriage equality now!
