Description
OutRage! was a queer direct action group formed in May 1990 and active until 2011. Its aims were to assert the human rights of LGBTQIA people; to fight homophobia, discrimination and violence; and to affirm rights to sexual freedom and self-determination. This is a plain white poster with black text reading "NO CRICKET WHILST ZIM BURNS" The poster calls for a boycott of cricket in Zimbabwe, protesting Robert Mugabe's anti-gay policies and supporting the 'Black-armband protest' general strike called by Zimbabwean players and workers. The OutRage! logo is at the bottom of the poster.
