Welcome to Liberty & Friends, a product of The Big Liberty Show and hosted by Big Daddy Liberty.

In this second episode we talk all things LGBTQ with IRR researcher & analyst, Gerrie van Heerden. Gerrie has conducted research and written extensively about the plight of the LGBTQ communities in South Africa and the rest of Africa. Are we building the sort of free societies in Africa that protect the liberty and rights of minorities such as gays and lesbians?

Join us in this conversation, as we discuss why a free society ought to protect the rights of all citizens, and encourage toleration and liberty.

Thanks to the FNF South Africa for supporting this episode.
