It is just simple: They want moreattention and more revenue from the target audience. They have local leaders for each branch of the agency to direct local content for what would work best in the local country/region. If Al Jazeera reports on something like why LGBT is banned in Qatar to the Western audience they are going to lose their market and their patronization.

They will never share this story in Qatar: It is a marketing strategy. They are for the money, and not care so much about what you want to do with your own people.
@@gordonmcmullan1087 Well let's check the dictionary: Phobia: an extreme or irrational fear of *or aversion* to something. *Aversion:* a strong dislike or disinclination. Hence the term homophobia does in fact fit.

Rooted in the dehumanization of black people, these oppressive systems birthed a narrative of superiority and inferiority, further compounded by religious dogma.

If there is fear of homosexuality spreading that is a fear, if there is fear that one might turn gay that is a fear. Fear is also a strand of negative beliefs. That is why it is called homophobia. There are those who don't have a stable sense of masculine identity so they don't want to admit that they have a fear of something.(fragile masculinity)

In Ghana, no one arrests or harasses people for simply being gay. You'll only have issue if you want to rub it into their faces or want to be forcefully accepted. If as a gay person, you say what you do in the privacy of your bedroom doesn't concern others, why then do you go about wanting others to accept you for the things you do in the privacy of your bedroom? The irony!
1) Don't say harassment and arrests don't happen when they clearly do, 2) I bet nobody is rubbing anything in your face, people just want to live their lives just like anyone without having to hide something that doesn't harm anyone, 3) you hearing about homosexuality is not a justification to violence and harassment.
@@TheGrindcorps How are you so sensitive? If you don't wanna hear something, don't listen or go to therapy to figure out why, just don't go around harrassing or beating people up. Nobody's asking you to be gay, and we all know that sexual orientation cannot be changed.

@@MrMarwan48The notion that the destigmatization and normalization of gay rights is tantamount to imposing values on children overlooks the broader imperative rooted in justice and human rights. The historical context of Africa, marred by the traumas of colonialism and the Atlantic slave trade, underscores the urgency of dismantling entrenched systems of discrimination. Racism, borne out of white supremacist ideologies, has perpetuated narratives of superiority and inferiority, compounding the challenges faced by marginalized communities. To tether the discourse solely to tradition disregards the evolving moral landscape and the imperative of progress. Destigmatizing LGBTQ+ rights isn't an imposition but a recognition of the inherent dignity of every individual, irrespective of sexual orientation. It's a departure from the shackles of theocratic dogma and bigotry towards a discourse grounded in reason and empathy.

No but when your so called culture discriminates against a vulnerable class and you make it illegal to be who you are, then yes. That needs to be fought because they deserve their rights. And which african values are you talking about? Before colonization which is what brought Christianity to Africa or after colonization with Christianity being widespread due to this?
@@wodemaya7899The assertion that Ghana lacks a homophobic problem disregards the lived experiences of countless individuals who face discrimination and violence due to their sexual orientation. It's not about imposing foreign values but recognizing universal human rights and the imperative of progress. Comparing the destigmatization of gay rights to advocating for alcohol legalization in Saudi Arabia oversimplifies the issue and fails to acknowledge the systemic oppression faced by LGBTQ+ individuals. The historical context of Africa, shaped by centuries of exploitation and oppression, underscores the urgency of dismantling entrenched systems of discrimination and prejudice. Normalizing gay rights isn't about imposing external values but embracing the intrinsic dignity of every individual, irrespective of sexual orientation. It's about transcending the shackles of theocratic dogma and bigotry towards a discourse grounded in reason and empathy. Respect for human rights should transcend national borders, fostering a global community where all individuals are afforded equal rights and dignity. It's not about meddling in others' affairs but advocating for justice and equality, dismantling the barriers of prejudice and oppression that have plagued societies for far too long.
I don't get it. Ghana's law is against it. Shouldn't that rest the case. If the laws of a country prohibits an act, surely promoting such acts is a crime. It's as simple as that.
While the legal framework of a country is crucial, it doesn't always equate to moral righteousness or justice, especially considering the historical context of Africa. The legacy of the Atlantic slave trade and colonialism, which imposed foreign values and norms, including homophobic attitudes, still lingers. The discrimination faced by black people, rooted in racism and the dehumanization of Africans, intersects with LGBTQ+ issues, as both stem from oppressive systems. Normalizing gay rights isn't about disregarding laws but recognizing the need for progress and human rights. The promotion of tolerance and acceptance counters the harmful effects of religious dogma and cultural taboos that perpetuate discrimination. Ethical discussions should prioritize logic and compassion over fear and hatred. By destigmatizing LGBTQ+ rights, Africa can move towards a more inclusive society, free from the shackles of outdated prejudices and totalitarianism, where all individuals are respected regardless of their sexual orientation or gender identity.
There is absolutely such a thing as a homophobe and that sounds like something a homophobe would say to rationalize their bigoted views. People don't choose to be gay.
As usual, foreign media significantly exaggerates the situation. This isn't a problem and you'd rarely hear of anyone being attacked in Ghana because of their sexual orientation. Ghanaians don't care about what you do in your bedroom as long as you keep it in your bedroom and don't feel the need to advertise what you do publicly and try to force people to accept it. Ghanaians are 100% firm in their decision and there's absolutely nothing changing their minds.
lets see about that! one thing I learned about Ghanaians is that they are easily swayed by money and I'm certain it's the money conservative churches are pouring into that country which is bringing these politicians into the lets hate gays arena. i don't see how the western media can exaggerate the situation when the presence of such a bill is being debated in parliament, and if the decisions that Ghanaians are firm about is to get this barbaric egregious bill passed, then where is the exaggeration? ghana was being lauded as a place of justice, peace and as a nation that cared about human rights,but the passing of this bill will definitely let the world know otherwise. i hope with that comes the back lash of the pulling out of funds, aid, and investments in an already economically vulnerable country.
@@curukuja Then you learned wrong about Ghanaians. Read about Obama's deal with Ghana that was rejected by Ex president Atta Mills. He was hailed in every corner of Ghana for turning down that money offered in exchange for legalizing LGBTQ. You know nothing. And pull out your funds in projects that benefit the west after all it wasn't entirely free in the first place, also pull out you oil and gas companies while you're at it. That line has been tried before and believe me when I tell it totally didn't work that's why no western leader has tried it again ever since.
@@curukuja May Peace be with you. Can you tell me how is it your business how other governments regulate their policies ?!?

In Ghana, no one arrests or harasses people for simply being gay. You'll only have issue if you want to rub it into their faces or want to be forcefully accepted. If as a gay person, you say what you do in the privacy of your bedroom doesn't concern others, why then do you go about wanting others to accept you for the things you do in the privacy of your bedroom? The irony!
1) Don't say harassment and arrests don't happen when they clearly do, 2) I bet nobody is rubbing anything in your face, people just want to live their lives just like anyone without having to hide something that doesn't harm anyone, 3) you hearing about homosexuality is not a justification to violence and harassment.
That’s the issue. The LGBT movement is all about rubbing it in the faces of people who don’t want it, sometimes quite literally.

@@MrMarwan48The notion that the destigmatization and normalization of gay rights is tantamount to imposing values on children overlooks the broader imperative rooted in justice and human rights. The historical context of Africa, marred by the traumas of colonialism and the Atlantic slave trade, underscores the urgency of dismantling entrenched systems of discrimination. Racism, borne out of white supremacist ideologies, has perpetuated narratives of superiority and inferiority, compounding the challenges faced by marginalized communities. To tether the discourse solely to tradition disregards the evolving moral landscape and the imperative of progress. Destigmatizing LGBTQ+ rights isn't an imposition but a recognition of the inherent dignity of every individual, irrespective of sexual orientation. It's a departure from the shackles of theocratic dogma and bigotry towards a discourse grounded in reason and empathy. Embracing diversity isn't antithetical to African values; it's a testament to our capacity for compassion and inclusivity. It's a clarion call to transcend the confines of orthodoxy and fanaticism, fostering a society where all individuals are afforded equal rights and dignity, free from the chains of prejudice and oppression.
Who told you Ghana has a homophobic problem? Can we come to your country and tell you how to live your lives? Can you go to Saudi Arabia and tell them to legalise alcohol because you drink alcohol in your country?? Mind your business
Greater & better Ancient ∆ ∆ ∆fric∆n 🤎🤎 culture🤎🤎 & society has no trace of same sexuality or homosexuality .
Homosexuality is rooted predominantly in expansive & culturally colonising European society .

Yeah, the world should no have let Hilter alone to lead his own nation the way he saw fit, right? And the western nations mining Africa for resources and slaves....they're OK, too, right?
No but when your so called culture discriminates against a vulnerable class and you make it illegal to be who you are, then yes. That needs to be fought because they deserve their rights. And which african values are you talking about? Before colonization which is what brought Christianity to Africa or after colonization with Christianity being widespread due to this?
@@wodemaya7899The assertion that Ghana lacks a homophobic problem disregards the lived experiences of countless individuals who face discrimination and violence due to their sexual orientation. It's not about imposing foreign values but recognizing universal human rights and the imperative of progress. Comparing the destigmatization of gay rights to advocating for alcohol legalization in Saudi Arabia oversimplifies the issue and fails to acknowledge the systemic oppression faced by LGBTQ+ individuals. The historical context of Africa, shaped by centuries of exploitation and oppression, underscores the urgency of dismantling entrenched systems of discrimination and prejudice. Normalizing gay rights isn't about imposing external values but embracing the intrinsic dignity of every individual, irrespective of sexual orientation. It's about transcending the shackles of theocratic dogma and bigotry towards a discourse grounded in reason and empathy. Respect for human rights should transcend national borders, fostering a global community where all individuals are afforded equal rights and dignity. It's not about meddling in others' affairs but advocating for justice and equality, dismantling the barriers of prejudice and oppression that have plagued societies for far too long.
I dont see this media network doing documentary like this in there own country. I'm waiting to see it in Qatar 🇶🇦 👀
2 wrongs has never made 1 right.
I don't get it. Ghana's law is against it. Shouldn't that rest the case. If the laws of a country prohibits an act, surely promoting such acts is a crime. It's as simple as that.
While the legal framework of a country is crucial, it doesn't always equate to moral righteousness or justice, especially considering the historical context of Africa. The legacy of the Atlantic slave trade and colonialism, which imposed foreign values and norms, including homophobic attitudes, still lingers. The discrimination faced by black people, rooted in racism and the dehumanization of Africans, intersects with LGBTQ+ issues, as both stem from oppressive systems. Normalizing gay rights isn't about disregarding laws but recognizing the need for progress and human rights. The promotion of tolerance and acceptance counters the harmful effects of religious dogma and cultural taboos that perpetuate discrimination. Ethical discussions should prioritize logic and compassion over fear and hatred. By destigmatizing LGBTQ+ rights, Africa can move towards a more inclusive society, free from the shackles of outdated prejudices and totalitarianism, where all individuals are respected regardless of their sexual orientation or gender identity.
This oozes hatred and intolerance... unbelievable

As usual, foreign media significantly exaggerates the situation. This isn't a problem and you'd rarely hear of anyone being attacked in Ghana because of their sexual orientation. Ghanaians don't care about what you do in your bedroom as long as you keep it in your bedroom and don't feel the need to advertise what you do publicly and try to force people to accept it.
Ghanaians are 100% firm in their decision and there's absolutely nothing changing their minds.
lets see about that! one thing I learned about Ghanaians is that they are easily swayed by money and I'm certain it's the money conservative churches are pouring into that country which is bringing these politicians into the lets hate gays arena. i don't see how the western media can exaggerate the situation when the presence of such a bill is being debated in parliament, and if the decisions that Ghanaians are firm about is to get this barbaric egregious bill passed, then where is the exaggeration? ghana was being lauded as a place of justice, peace and as a nation that cared about human rights,but the passing of this bill will definitely let the world know otherwise. i hope with that comes the back lash of the pulling out of funds, aid, and investments in an already economically vulnerable country.
@@curukuja Then you learned wrong about Ghanaians. Read about Obama's deal with Ghana that was rejected by Ex president Atta Mills.

Qatar will never allow debauchery of any kind among the people in such a public way.
It is just simple: They want moreattention and more revenue from the target audience. They have local leaders for each branch of the agency to direct local content for what would work best in the local country/region. If Al Jazeera reports on something like why LGBT is banned in Qatar to the Western audience they are going to lose their market and their patronization.
Essentially, what Al Jazeera is saying is that you can believe what you believe and promote it to your local audience and they will be fine with it (so long as it is not to their own local audience in Qatar). They will never share this story in Qatar: It is a marketing strategy. They are for the money, and not care so much about what you want to do with your own people.

Problem..? Nah.. Keep that mess in America / Babylon..
You should run a segment on Al Jezeera's Sinophobia - and we can compare notes.
Give it any name you like homophobia or whatever you will not accept it in our society
Ah yes, Al Jazeera, state broadcaster of Qatar, a champion of LGBTQ+ rights.
Al-Jazeera English is completely independent of the government and people of Qatar, and has a left-wing administration in the West, while Al-Jazeera Arabic is not independent, and this Arabic channel does not promote LGBT values. Like the English channel, all the love ❤ From the Arab people to all the African, Asian and Latin people, it's issues of LGBT values it's your decision not the decision of the left of the West .
This is the power of media. You can get people to believe whatever you like, while demonizing the people you don’t.
Case in point, america and russia
Definition of religion there
@@broeisi yeah, that is not the answer

May god bless your soul, O’ soldier of freedom.
God bless Ghana
You believe theirs a man sitting on a cloud?
@@soton5teve I believe that there is an all powerful being responsible for creating the universe. You believe that the Universe came from a singularity which existed for an indefinite amount of time until it exploded for no reason.
the countries that are blessed are evidently the western nations that have given these same people that Ghana wants to persecute, a right to exist and thrive in living their own truth. these are the richest and most powerful nations in the world for the most part, so if there's God he's is obviously on their side. ghana isn't doing well and this law if passed will devastate her economy further. god don't like ugly.
@@soton5teve Its not by force that you have to believe in God, but you should objectively without bias be able to see the benefits to the communal obedience to the ordinances of the Christian God. The contemporary western culture that has abandoned these, are having terrible cultural problems. Another example is the sick obsession with dogs which are a depraved creature.
Now and ever
Al Jazeera hope you guys will report about LGBTQI in Doha your HQ and the Arabs world as well. Let’s see if they will allow it. Oh😢wait they will not.
Stop linking the respectable ghana flag with lgpzts or whatever symbol
Big up, Ghana👌🏿
Respect Ghana
Is Al Jazzera Hacked???
🤣🤣
Aljazeera... I'll love you to make a documentary on this same topic in Saudi Arabia and other Islamic countries.
You cannot impose an alien culture on Ghanaians.
Ghanaians do not care what you do in your rooms but we abhor the promotion of this alien behaviour.
Love to Ghana
Please let African live the proper family values, we don't need sponsored lgtbg right, why does people always need to her a show
Nature family is the only foundation of society
It's always human right, then behind it's the lgth is being promoted and growing
Why point fingers at just Ghana when it's nearly all African countries with this attitude?
We don't just need this nonsense in Africa..
You already have that in Africa, homosexuals exists everywhere, didn't you know ?
@@JuniorNOGUEIRA. for long it's not public in our eyes,then it's fine.
The great Ghana....never submit to foreign powers ...
Other than western christian ideology.
👏👏👏👏👏
The living God calls it an abomination, meaning it's detestable, it's disgusting to him!
🇬🇭 much respect to ghana✊🏿
God isnt supporting oppression. It is disgusting to him. He calls it abnormality. Much respect for freedom and tolerance!
👍👍👍👍👍
If Ghana want to keep it organic, then let them. Mind your business.
the comments are why i as a trans person had to get a gun.
Has Qatar no homophobia problem? Please, make a video on it.
Ghana today, tomorrow and the future will support natural family which is the foundation of society. We love you all but we will not allow you to add new truth to our old natural truth with common sense. We just love our old culture, respect Ghana culture and we will respect you too.
Ghana today is supporting anti LGBT laws violating human rights. Lets hope the future will change their minds leading them to freedom and tolerance.
Of all the major issues in Africa like poverty, poor health care, economic debt etc, why do a documentary on homophobia in Ghana??? Why hasn't Al Jazeera produce a documentary of homophobia in their own country Qatar, or homophobia in Saudi Arabia and other countries in the UAE where all of these countries have zero tolerance of homophobia?? Ghana and the rest of Africa, you stick to your principles and do not allow these external forces not one inch to corrupt your society!
BLACK PEOPLE ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO BE GAY. WE ARE DIRECT DECEDENT'S OF GOD ALMIGHTY. WHY DONT YALL GO DO YOUR PAGAN PRACTICES WITH YOUR OWN PEOPLE AND LEAVE MY PEOPLE ALONE
In most cases these whites promote nonsense in African countries and elsewhere. Please report gay rights in Qatar or Russia or elsewhere. I am a South African and I am proud of my Ghanaian brothers.
Absolutely 100 💯 percent correct .
King Shaka Zulu would be proud of your AfricAn 🤎 pride
you're proud of your Ghanaian brothers? lol which ones the lgbtq ones? because they are Ghanaians too.
@@curukuja Am pretty sure you know exactly which brothers and sisters. The LGBT are the Western influenced and they stopped long time ago from being part of the African family the day they decided to be gays and lesbians.
We don't need the lgnonsense in Ghana.
you mean christianity? you mean islam ? yes I agree with you. lets return to African values.
What about homosexuality in Qatar where al jazeera is from ✅
