“I want to be an ally of those who can't speak for themselves yet.”
Skeem Saam
actor Cedric Fourie said he will never apologise for advocating for the LGBTQI+ community and that the way he sees it, homophobia is the work of the devil! The actor recently clapped back at people on social media who made assumptions about his sexual orientation based on social media posts. He said he is fed up with people wanting to dictate who he can advocate for and why.LISTEN TO HIS THOUGHTS: “I want to be an ally of those who can't speak for themselves yet. Be a voice for those who are being hurt. Within my family, I've got a gay cousin and a gay brother, and so I've seen how people treat gay people and lesbians.
Cedric said he will never sit back and watch while the people he cares about continue to be mistreated. He added that as long as society is unwilling to listen to LGBTQI+ community members, he will offer his voice whenever he can, until things change. “I've chosen to be an ally because it's a core value that I have and if it's a core value, you live by it. No questions, no doubt!”
