We wrote yesterday about the launch of Brian Brown’s new International Organization for the Family and the anti-LGBT manifesto they are calling the Cape Town Declaration. Errol Naidoo, the founder and president of the Family Policy Institute in South Africa, has posted video excerpts from the press conference launching the declaration.

Naidoo started FPI after a six-month “training mission” at the Family Research Council in Washington, D.C., in 2007, and the group has since joined the World Congress of Families and the Family Rights Caucus at the United Nations. His group’s website features a logo from the Family Research Council’s Watchmen on the Wall and a photo of Naidoo speaking with anti-gay activist Harry Jackson at one of NOM’s marches in Washington, D.C. Naidoo also writes of his working relationship with the Alliance Defending Freedom.

Naidoo explained in a 2013 interview that his founding of FPI was in response to the passage in 2006 of the Civil Union Act, which allowed same-sex couples to be legally married. Naidoo had lobbied against its passage in parliament. At the Cape Town press conference, he said it was significant that the group was meeting in South Africa, which he called “the first country in Africa that legalized same-sex marriage against the will of the people.” FPI’s website currently features a photo of Naidoo with Nelson Mandela, who was instrumental in the inclusion in South Africa’s post-apartheid constitution of a provision forbidding discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation.

Brown, president of the National Organization for Marriage, the World Congress of Families, and the new International Organization for the Family, said that the gathering is meant to stand for “that thing which no government, no power can change” – the “beautiful truth” that “men and women are different, and that they are designed for something pure and good, and that is marriage.” Brown said many people in the West are afraid to speak this truth and face persecution for doing so; he said he hoped to “create a whole new movement around the world.”
