Brenda Biya, daughter of Cameroon's authoritarian President Biya, recently posted a photo on social media kissing a Brazilian female model, defying the country's law that punishes homosexuality with up to 5 years in prison. While Brenda did not explicitly state her sexual orientation, her actions have been praised by LGBTQ+ activists in Cameroon as potentially a turning point for the community there. Despite receiving both support and hate comments, Brenda's posts on coming out have sparked discussions on privilege and discrimination in the country.
