In this episode, we ask if gay fans should feel safe going to Qatar for the World Cup, in a country where sex between men is a criminal offence. There’s a lot more to this topic than you’ve probably heard before. We speak to members of Qatar’s queer community with opposing views about the rainbow flag and Western advocacy for the LGBTIQ+ community. We also hear from Rasha Younes (senior researcher with the LGBT Rights Program at Human Rights Watch), and journalist, Maryam Iqbal.
