“We remind once again that a strong family consists of love not hate.”
“My Child” which is a feature documentary narrating the story of parents of LGBTI+ persons, met with the audience at Galatasaray University.
Can Candan, Director of the documentary, and Şule Ceylan and Ömer Ceylan from Families and Friends of LGBTIs in Turkey (LISTAG), participated in the event conducted by Lion Queer, on November 4th.
Lion Queer also posted a solidarity message against the censorship of the documentary at Boğaziçi University, where Can Candan was a lecturer and against the trustee rector’s dismissal decision about Candan:
“We would like to express our solidarity with them and to remark that we will stand by them all the way, here as well. We remind once again that a strong family consists of love, not hate, and we never forget that we are neither wrong nor alone!”
