International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia and Transphobia (IDAHOBIT) Celebration

This Saturday, 16 May 2026, we gather at House of Khumali (Molapo Crossing) for our International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia and Transphobia (IDAHOBIT) commemoration, under the global theme: “The Power of Communities.”

And this theme matters now more than ever. Because communities are not only where we find belonging; they are also where we find protection, courage, and the collective strength to challenge systems that impact LGBTQ+ lives and rights.

This year’s commemoration also highlights the ongoing matter of
Bonolo Selelo & Tsholofelo Seele Kumile vs The Acting Director of Civil Registration & The Attorney General; a reminder that dignity, recognition, and equality are not abstract ideas, but real struggles that require real community solidarity.

When individuals are faced with barriers, it is communities that amplify their voices.
When systems feel heavy, it is communities that carry the hope forward.
When rights are questioned, it is communities that insist: we are here, and we matter. That is the power we are gathering to honour.

We invite you to stand with us not just in presence, but in solidarity, in awareness, and in action. Because when communities show up, change is not only possible, it is inevitable.
