Dear Alaskans Together for Equality,


HEAR MY CRY.


My name is Tatelicious Karigambe a very proud woman from Zimbabwe

Africa and may you please read my story.


Recently i defied the odds by becoming the first Transgender in my

country to publicly tell my story to the whole nation of Zimbabwe

through the use of media specifically the radio and the print media.


Ooooh yes the main agenda i did this was to educate my fellow citizens

about Transgenders issues and well this was delivered.


The problem came now when the government of Zimbabwe intervened and

they are calling my move as Western Sponsored Science Project.My house

was burnt and my car was vandalized.I also received an anonymous

package containing three gun bullets and it had a printed note written

“WE ARE WATCHING YOU”.I am now afraid of what is gonna come next as

the ZANU PF youths are doing all they can to destroy transgender lives

in Zimbabwe and t6hey are getting support from the President Robert

Mugabe.


I went to the police to report but all was in vain and also i seeked

for Civil Society groups in Zimbabwe who claim to stand for the LGBTIQ

but all they said is they cant help me because they fearing that their

organizations will be forced to close and they will never receive

funding form the Ministry of Health here in Zimbabwe.As we speak i was

denied access to take my ARVs at a local clinic here in Zimbabwe as

they said they where given that directive by the Central Intelligence

Office of Zimbabwe through the call by the President Robert Mugabe.


Right now i am hiding in rural areas and lucky enough the Headmistress

of the school where i am staying is my best friend and there is also

access of internet services.


May you please assist as this will give new hope to the Transgender

community in Zimbabwe that we have friends that will stand with us in

time of need.I don’t want to die before i see a complete gender

revolution in my country that’s why i am seeking for your help to get

an asylum before they kill me and believe me Mugabe will do whatever

it takes to bring US down.


Your Assistance will go a long way and will never be forgotten.


PLEASE HELP A SISTER OUT.


Yours Sincerely


Ms Tatelicious Karigambe
