Yamen Lawrence, Arab Israeli gay activist

Yamen Lawrence is a proud Arab Israeli gay activist. He was raised in Nazareth where he had to hide his identity while enduring years of emotional and physical bullying from fellow Arab classmates. When coming out to his Muslim family, many disowned him. Yamen now lives in Tel Aviv, openly gay and a member of a vibrant, thriving and supportive community where living his truth is both protected and celebrated.For more, you can follow the show on Instagram @GraceforimpactpodcastProduced by Peoples Media Hosted on Acast.
