Description
Samuel Luiz, a 24-year-old nursing assistant, was beaten to death in early July in A Coruña, a city in northwest Spain. Witnesses say his aggressors reportedly used homophobic slurs while attacking him. But the police have not deemed it a hate crime yet. The killing has shocked the LGBTQ community, and many have started a conversation online about their own experiences with attacks. Others are questioning how progressive the European country really is.In this episode: Begoña Gómez Urzaiz (@begogomezurzaiz), freelance journalist in BarcelonaMateo Sancho (@mateosancho), journalist and sociologistEnrique Aparicio (@esnorquel), journalistRubén Serrano (@RubenSerranoM), journalist and authorConnect with The Take: Twitter (@AJTheTake), Instagram (@ajthetake) and Facebook (@TheTakePod)See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
