As many of you must know, the island of Jamaica has a (well-deserved) reputation as "the most homophobic place on Earth" despite being a tropical paradise and tourist destination. There have been several reports of extra-judicial killings and beatings of individuals believed to be LGBT.
Anyway, a coalition of groups has organized an anti-homophobia public education campaign which includes a PSA (public service announcement) called "Unconditional Love." You can watch it here. This is great news, because it demonstrates that there is an organized effort to combat the unrelenting homophobia which has been festering in most social circles of Jamaica.
