Description:
In recent years, LGBT+ people deprived of liberty have consolidated themselves as subjects of rights in several Latin American contexts – a phenomenon analyzed by a growing number of researchers. Despite some important legal and institutional advances, the challenges faced by this population are immense, having been aggravated in the context of the COVID 19 pandemic.
At this event, we had the presence of the renowned Mexican activist Ari Vera Morales, president of the Civil Association Almas Cautivas, to hold a debate on this topic of great political and social relevance. Also participating are researchers on the subject and representatives of projects that work with the reintegration of trans people who have spent time in prison. The proposal is to think not only about the prison experience, but also ways to combat the criminalization of these lives and prevent recidivism.
Corpas Trans USP will assist in the transport logistics between the venue and the Butantã subway, ensuring the safety of the dissident bodies participating in the event. Contact @ma.andoyiki for more details
