We Remember

Over the last few years, many gay rights activists and ordinary people have suffered homophobic beatings and even death. We remember our brothers and sisters and admire their courage for the stance they took, knowing that they lived in some of the most brutal places on earth. Their courage is an inspiration to us all and it is for this reason that Outburst UK dedicate the following section of the web site to remember and celebrate our fallen brothers and sisters and also to all those who made a positive contribution to our community.
