09/27: Elephant Man Facing Protests in Canada
Hour.ca has the story.
But in Jamaica, ground zero in the war over dancehall, there have been a reported 98 gay-bashings so far this year, including four lesbians who were raped and four gay men who've been killed. And anti-gay dancehall has become the music of the people.
That is why the three-year-old international campaign against these dancehall performers is called Stop Murder Music.
And the just-formed Canadian chapter is protesting Elephant Man's 12-date Canadian tour that began Sept. 20 in Winnipeg and brings the dancehall don to Montreal's Rialto on Oct. 5.
