Speak out against persecution LGBTI People in cameroon

The Issue

Hilton Hotels cannot operate in a Country where sexuality is criminalized and remain silent. The persecution of lesbians impacts employees and customers alike. Is Hilton Hotel willing to remain silent and continue to operate in countries which criminalize homosexuality.

10 local lesbians were arrested in Ambam, Cameroon, some 190 miles south of the capital of Yaounde, (location of a Hilton 5 star hotel.) The Cameroon Government is openly persecuting lesbians, using draconian laws they say make it illegal for people of the same gender to love each other.
