By Nellie PeytonDAKAR, Nov 28 (Thomson Reuters Foundation) – Gay sex may be illegal in Ghana – dancing isn’t. So rappers and singers are using music videos to embrace LGBT+ life and fight homophobia in this conservative West African nation. “The main thing the youth consume is music videos.”In one new video, young men dance provocatively in a gay club. Same-sex relations are illegal in the West African country, and it’s too dangerous for celebrities to come out as gay. They refused, instead releasing a music video that addressed the “gay vibe” outright, filmed with members of the LGBT+ community in a gay-friendly nightclub in Ghana’s capital Accra.
