Despite constitutional protections founded on the principles of equality, human dignity and freedom, violence based on gender and sexual orientation is rampant in South Africa.
Taking stock of the socio-political climate in the country, the authors of The Country We Want to Live In argue for empathy, inclusivity, citizenship, belonging, and social justice—and, most importantly, conclude with specific strategies and clear policy recommendations for eliminating violence against lesbians.
