Taboom Media and GALA Queer Archive are pleased to launch Whispers and Shouts, the third volume in our Queer Activism in Africa anthology series.
In Whispers and Shouts, 21 more human rights defenders from across the continent share their origin stories and activist journeys. These intimate testimonies of strength and vulnerability, all available in both English and French, document and elevate our collective fight for LGBTQI+ equality.
Queer and ally artists bring each story to life with original illustrations that depict the hardships and triumphs of our collective movement. The result is a powerful anthology of resistance, resilience, and recognition.
Like its predecessors Hopes and Dreams That Sound Like Yours (May 2021), and Courage to Share (Aug. 2022), Whispers and Shouts emerged from a Media Advocacy for LGBTQI+ Equality workshop Taboom Media hosted in May 2023 with activists from nearly 20 countries.
Whispers and Shouts was made possible through generous support from the Arcus Foundation, the National Endowment for Democracy, and Initiative Sankofa d’Afrique de l’Ouest (ISDAO). It is published under a Creative Commons license. Please help us share these stories far and wide!
A downloadable pdf of the anthology in its highest resolution, complete with all stories and illustrations, PLUS the original high resolution files in RGB and CMYK of my own personal artwork contribution.
