Graeme Smith and his husband Steven John travel to Trinidad and Tobago to launch series 6 of OUTCAST UK just days after the country’s shock court ruling recriminalised homosexuality, reinstating a colonial-era law that now carries a 5-year prison sentence for same-sex intimacy.
In this on-the-ground exclusive, OUTCAST UK meets Jason Jones, the activist taking the Trinidadian government to the Privy Council in London — the last hope for decriminalisation, not just in Trinidad, but for millions of LGBTQ+ people across the Commonwealth.
Together, we unpack the deep scars of British colonial law, the grip of modern-day US-backed conservative networks, and the global battle to push back against the rising tide of anti-LGBTQ+ legislation.
This isn’t just a story about one island — it’s a frontline report from a legal fight that could shape queer rights across the world.
