His Name Was Zelimkhan

This missing pop singer was believed to be a victim of Chechnya’s anti-gay purge. Now he’s believed to be dead.

“His name is Zelimkhan Bakayev. The thought there will be a follow-up to this story where I write, ‘his name was,’ sickens my stomach” was what I wrote last Thursday.

There’s now a big bottle of Pepto Bismal on my desk only because only because vodka doesn’t miss with coffee.

Think that couldn’t happen here too? Think your vote doesn’t matter? Think again.

  1. So we should learn his name because he’s cute. I see who is important and not. How about our trans sisters who get killed I sure as hell don’t see you guys telling us to remember their names. Oh wait it’s because they’re not a cute white boy.
