LESBIAN, GAY, TRANSGENDER, INTERSEX AND BISEXUAL PEOPLE SAY HALALA TO COSATU!

25 YEARS OF COSATU!!

We as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and inter-sexed people (LGBTI) activists salute the workers of South Africa as they celebrate 25 years of the Congress of South African Trade Unions (COSATU). We express our full support to the workers’ struggle for a living wage, decent work and social justice. We express our full solidarity for the workers’ struggle against the inhumane capitalist system that exploits workers, undermines women and marginalises LGBTI people.
