Bethlehem Queers

Bethlehem Queers

Egypt

Bethlehem Queers in Palestine was born from the Inad Theater leadership program. It is an Instagram account that serves as the only online platform for the Palestinian LGBTQIA+ community. In Palestine, sexuality and gender identity are extremely taboo topics, and it is unsafe for young queer Palestinians to express their identities or even talk about them. Bethlehem Queers creates a safe space for queer Palestinian women who are marginalised to come together and communicate their experiences with sexuality and gender identity through sharing their stories, jokes, and different forms of art expression with each other safely away from hate and oppression.
