Hi everyone. There was a demonstration today at 12 noon at UCC against continued protesting the blatant discrimination practised by the Blood Board against gay men.This is the second year that these protestsd have been held.The Blood Board has a blanket ban against any men who have ever had sex with a man from ever giving blood. It doesn't even bother to ask straight people wether or not they practise safer sex.There are also demonstrations at UCC at 12 noon tomorrow Tuesday 16th and Wednesday 17th of November .The anti-racist movement isn't made up only of Black and Asian people. Don't leave fighting homophobia up to gay people.
