Original Note:
While the grant did fund drag shows, context is missing. Data shows that there's an increase in violence against LGBTQI+ people in Ecuador. The program aims to "promote tolerance" and "provide opportunities for LGBTQI+ Ecuadorians to express themselves freely & safely." https://www.newsweek.com/fact-check-biden-administration-funding-drag-shows-ecuador-1753649 https://www.washingtonblade.com/2024/01/20/violence-against-lgbtq-ecuadorians-increases-amid-internal-armed-conflict/ https://www.equaldex.com/region/ecuador
