Listen to WBEZ 91.5 FM between noon and 1 pm today (Monday) as LGBT Honduran leader Pepe Palacios and Gary Cozette of the Chicago Religious Leadership Network on Latin America speak on Jerome McDonald's "Worldview" program.

Also, earlier tonight Pepe spoke on the Feast of Fun podcast.  Here is the pitch for it, and the link.  Please share them widely:

Why is the Obama administration still supporting the government of Honduras? Since a government coup in 2009, some 87 LGBT Hondurans, including many of their top leaders, have been the victim of a systematic campaign of targeted hate crimes and political assassinations.

On Wednesday at 6 PM, meet Pepe in person at DePaul University's Lincoln Park Campus, Arts & Letters Hall, Room 412, 2315 N. Kenmore Ave.  Pepe will lead a presentation about the current situation in Honduras. 

Included in the event will be a short film produced by the Gay Liberation Network. The film was shot during a September 2012 solidarity delegation to Honduras organized by La Voz de los de Abajo, and shows armed guards of the nation's largest landowner firing in the direction of the delegation to intimidate them from investigating a murder that had happened just a few days before.
