-Letter of support for Judith Butler
As activists who work on the frontline, within our communities, on the
interconnected issues of sexuality, gender and Islam, Safra Project wishes
to appreciate the solidarity Judith Butler has shown in her public
denouncement of racism and Islamaphobia that exists in gay organisations
during Berlin Pride on 19 June 2010.

We welcome the personal refusal of the Zivilcourage Prize and instead
dedicating the Civil Courage Prize to the organisations
GLADT(www.gladt.de), LesMigraS (www.lesmigras.de), SUSPECT and ReachOut
(www.reachoutberlin.de).

The evidence of inciting racism against Muslims and migrants to Germany
by the Lesbian and Gay Federation Germany (CSD) and the gay helpline Maneo
is exposed.

Thank you Judith for putting yourself on the line as we do everyday.

In solidarity and peace,
Safra Project
