International News Report South Africa: Cape Town Courts Pink Money
Cape Town, South Africa, wants your gay money.
"Cape Town is the gay capital of Africa and we hope that some day it will become the gay capital of the world," says Sheryl Ozinsky, manager of Cape Town Tourism.
Mexico: Gays Organize in San Luis Potosi
The first-ever gay group has come into existence in the city of
San Luis Potosi, Mexico, 258 miles north of Mexico City in the
state of the same name.
Fourteen people gathered at Sheik Disco Bar in late November to hear a talk by Tijuana gay leader Alejandro Garcia. By the end of the evening, they had formed an association and named Jorge Ivone their interim coordinator. A board of directors will be selected once group members get to know each other better, they decided. "The gay/lesbian community of San Luis Potosi now has grown enough to begin to be aware that they are a community," said Garcia. |
