Cameroon : Exclues du collège pour homosexualité / Excluded from middle-school for homosexual practices - By Frédéric Boungou, Le Messager, 03/19/06 : http://www.bonaberi.com/article.php?aid=2045
Sur cette feuille de papier, annoncé sobrement, ?liste des lesbiennes sont donc exclues définitivement".
?Sur les photos, outre le nom, la classe de chacune des élèves bannies est soigneusement marquée. Les vigiles sensibilisés, ont pour tâche, de ne pas les laisser franchir dorénavant l?enceinte du collège. Depuis leur audition par le directeur de l?établissement, cette issue était prévisible, nous confie un élève. ? Depuis un certain temps, elles s?étaient fait remarquer par un comportement bizarre.
<br><br> Placidly written on a sheet of paper : ?list of the lesbians definitively excluded?.
?On the pictures the name and the class of each of the pupils is carefully indicated. The guards have been warned and have been asked not to let them inside of the middle school anymore. Since their interview with the director of the establishment, such an ending was foreseeable? another student says. ?It has been some some time since they started acting weirdly?.

Manifestation contre l'homosexualité au Cameroun / March against homosexuality in Cameroon - By Habibou Bangré, Tétu, 07/12/09 : http://www.tetu.com/actualites/international/manifestation-contre-lhomosexualite-au-cameroun-15076
L'archidiocèse de Douala, la capitale économique au sud du Cameroun, part de nouveau en croisade contre l'homosexualité. Hier, samedi 11 juillet, des milliers de personnes se sont réunies à son appel, lors d'une manifestation de protestation.
Deux associations de droits de l'homme locales, Alternatives-Cameroun et l'Association de défense de l'homosexualité (Adefho), annoncent que l'Eglise catholique a lancé une pétition pour dénoncer la ratification de la Charte africaine des droits de l'homme et des peuples relatif aux droits des femmes (protocole de Maputo). Leur problème? Premièrement, le texte adopté en 2003 par l'Union africaine autorise l'avortement médicalisé. Deuxièmement, il légalise l'homosexualité. D'où la marche d'hier, qui a rassemblé, selon l'archidiocèse, 20.000 personnes (le chiffre n'a pas été confirmé par la police).
<br><br>
The archdiocese of Douala, the economic capital of South Cameroon, is crusading against homosexuality again. Yesterday, july 11th, thousands of people have answered its call and gathered to protest in the streets.
The Catholic church has launched a petition to denounce the ratification of the African Charter of Human and People?s Rights (Maputo protocol). Their problem with it? First the text adopted in 2003 by the African Union authorizes medically assisted abortion. Second, it legalized homosexuality. Hence yesterday?s demonstration to which 20.000 people participated according to the archbishop (this estimation was not confirmed by the police).

LGBT rights in Jamaica- Wikipedia- last revised 11/28/08
LGBT (Lesbian/gay/bisexual/transgender) rights in Jamaica are dominated by the prohibition of sexual acts between men. Sexual acts between women are legal, by virtue of the absence of any reference to them in law. Sex between men is punishable with up to ten years jail.[1]
Social leaders in Jamaica accuse international groups of meddling in domestic affairs. They defend laws against homosexuality as upholding Christian values.
