The Pretoria-based OUT LGBT-Well Being is raising funds to ensure that Steve Hofmeyr faces the Equality Court and accounts for his dangerous anti-LGBTIQ+ rhetoric.
OUT, along with the SA Human Rights Commission (SAHRC), is one of the complainants in the Equality Court case filed against Hofmeyr in June for what they argue amounts to hate speech. The SAHRC is asking that he issue a full public apology, donate R500,000 to an LGBTIQ+ group and do community service.
OUT said in a statement that right-wing singer must be held accountable for spreading anti-LGBTIQ+ lies and misinformation by telling his hundreds of thousands of social media followers that the LGBTIQ+ community supports people who engage in bestiality and suggesting that the community aims to sexually “groom” children through inclusive representation and education.

The organisation aims to raise R50,000 to cover these costs. “We are asking everyone who agrees that
