Anti-Gay Violence and Victimization in the United States: An Overview

Author: Kevin T. Berrill

In: Journal of Interpersonal Violence, Vol 5, No 3, 1990, pp. 274-294

There have been significant campaigns to protect and promote LGBT rights in the USA, including a series of National Marches on Washington in 1979, 1987, 1993 and 2000, but also in many other western countries, which are not so well covered in English publications. The political, legal , religious and cultural contexts vary, however, between countries, so LGBT communities can face somewhat different problems. (For the UK see G.2.b.)
