    South Africa – From Victim to Victor

    In South Africa—a country often referred to as the murder and rape capital of the world—one group of women are especially at risk. Lesbians are increasingly the targets of a particularly heinous crime: “curative” or “corrective” rape, which perpetrators believe will change their sexual orientation.
