BEIRUT: Not only has Lebanon managed to establish Helem, the first Arab non-governmental organization openly fighting for the rights of homosexuals, but it is also now publishing Barra (Arabic for Out), the region’s first magazine for gay Arabs.
Published quarterly by Helem, Barra, according to one of its writers, is “a free space for all gays and lesbians in the region to express their feelings of social oppression and stigma.”
