The fight for LGBT+ rights in Poland | Behind The Headlines
Although same-sex activity has been legal since 1932, Poland has come under heavy criticism for its lack of rights protecting members of the LGBT+ community. Nearly one third of Poland operates as an “LGBT-free zone”, a town or a city which rejects “LGBT ideology”.

Human-rights activist, Dan Glass, walks us through the fight for LGBT rights in Poland.
