Matthew Shepard

Мэ́ттью Уэ́йн Ше́пард (англ. Matthew Wayne Shepard, 1 декабря 1976, Каспер, Вайоминг, США — 12 октября 1998, Форт-Коллинс, Колорадо, США) — американский студент, жертва преступления на почве ненависти к гомосексуалам, ставший символом борьбы с гомофобией, насилием и предрассудками в отношении ЛГБТ-людей. Его убийство в 1998 году вызвало широкий резонанс и привлекло внимание общественности к проблемам ЛГБТ-сообщества. Впоследствии в США был принят «Закон Мэттью Шепарда и Джеймса Бёрда-младшего», расширивший законодательное определение преступления на почве ненависти. Подробнее в Википедии
