Episode 003: "They Murder Us" (Andrea Ayala)

As Pride Months ends, we go to El Salvador for a conversation with Andrea Ayala, the Executive Director of ESMULES, Espacio de Mujeres Lesbianas Salvadoreñas por la Diversidad. Violence, both in general and specifically against LGBTI people, is epidemic in El Salvador, but in this conversation, Andrea discusses the resilient work her organization is doing to make key Salvadoran institutions more responsive to the needs of the LGBTI community.

ESMULES is on Facebook here and on Twitter at @esmules. For more information about its work with LGBTI seniors, go to adult-tez.org.
