Catarina Barragon

activist Portugal

Catarina Barragon, a 26-year-old activist, has become a notable figure in the LGBTQIA+ community within the Catholic Church. During the World Youth Day in Lisbon, she boldly carried an LGBTQIA+ flag that read 'Pope’s Youth', symbolizing her desire for inclusion and representation in the Church. Despite facing backlash and criticism, including derogatory remarks from a priest and a public figure, she felt empowered by Pope Francis' message of acceptance for all, particularly for the queer community. Catarina's journey reflects the ongoing struggle for LGBTQIA+ rights within traditional religious contexts.
