The homosexual organisation in Juiz de Fora - History of the Miss Gay Brazil pageant from 1977 to the formation of the MGM in 2000. DE

The present work aims to study the history of homosexual organisation in Juiz de Fora, with the objective of understanding whether there have been and what were the main changes that occurred in relation to the rupture of prejudices and socio-cultural stigmas in the field of homosexuality, from the perspective of the organisers of the Miss Gay Brazil pageant and their main collaborators, throughout the twenty-three years of history from the first Miss Gay Brazil to the formation of the MGM - Gay Movement of Minas Gerais. The pageant shed light on how homosexuals in Juiz de Fora mobilised against homophobia and created a serious and responsible political agenda that, whether it advanced a lot or a little, unlocked the doors and moved forward with feet ready to walk a long, difficult and immensely exciting path, since it speaks of life, freedom and dreams.
