Book excerpt: "This report documents how hateful rhetoric has translated into unlawful action by Indonesian authorities--sometimes in collaboration with militant Islamist groups--against people presumed to be LGBT. Based on in-depth interviews with victims and witnesses, health workers, and activists, this report updates a Human Rights Watch August 2016 report that documented the sharp rise in anti-LGBT attacks and rhetoric in Indonesia that began that year. It examines major incidents between November 2016 and June 2018, and the far-reaching impact of this anti-LGBT "moral panic" on the lives of sexual and gender minorities and the serious consequences for public health in the country."--Publisher website, viewed July 12, 2018.
