Tokyo Pride Parade celebrated its 30th anniversary over the weekend, with 15,000 people converging to celebrate the local LGBTQIA+ community.
Rishi Sunak has been urged to follow Canadian PM Justin Trudeau’s lead in holding countries to account over LGBTQ rights at the G7 summit.
“Before I worked in Tokyo but I returned to my native city,” Mr Okumara explained. “The problem was that there were and are no options for gay people here,” he said. Mr Okumara lives with HIV and laments the fact that HIV and LGBTQI+ issues are still taboo. “There is so little information, it is a shame and I am here to share my experience and share more awareness,” he said.
Cheering, flag-waving crowds gathered in Tokyo last weekend for the first full Pride parade in four years, celebrating advances in LGBTQ rights but demanding Japan join other advanced nations in legally recognising same-sex marriage.
