In August, Rachel Evans gave a presentation entitled Rainbow 
Cuba: the struggle against homophobia in the socialist 
revolution.

Rachel is a gay and lesbian rights activist with 
Community Action Against Homophobia (Sydney) and the 
Socialist Alliance.

Rachel recently returned from a visit to Cuba 
where she met with activists from the gay, lesbian and 
transgender community. 

Rachel's presentation examined the 
history, achievements and challenges of their struggle for 
equality in Cuba. It was an insightful and thought provoking 
discussion amongst members.
