i think uganda will benefit more if asians are out of i uganda.bble, in their own echo chamber. they were surrounded mostly by brown people. the dynamic between brown people and black people, mostly, where they lived, was that of worker and boss. there's always been this hierarchy — white people at the top, brown people in the middle and black people at the bottom, and this has existed in uganda under the british. i personally felt that people in uganda, asians and ugandans, were mixing quite well together. so much of what they tell me is wrapped around nostalgia, and i really want to dig deeper than that and find out what life was like there for them and why they had to leave. done. i'm going to uganda and i'm really, really excited. i'm looking forward to meeting all the people, ugandans over there, i'm looking forward to going and seeing the house that i was born in, and the house injinja that we were living in the last... what was really emotional for me was seeing my mum and my aunt. they paid their respects in a very hindu way, which you usu

what does this mean for the queer community in uganda? | the queer community in uganda?ves have already been in for. there is already been in for. there is already violence on the ground thatis already violence on the ground that is ensuing on two people, there is already people that are being thrown out of houses. not only that but also in villages as well where chairman's are like, get out of our village, we don't want you, you know? we do already have cases of corrective rape and all of these horrendous hate crimes and all of that and it is because of obviously they all talk about the bill because every time they speak about it or discuss it in the parliament it feels like the society feels like their responsibility to actually carry out these heinous crimes onto queer bodies, onto us, by getting people naked and beating them up people naked and beating them up and all of that, so these things are already happening. whether the bill has been signed or not and uganda also has a history of using the speu has a history of using the spell to threaten the queer community,

to impose sanctions against uganda.statement, he said -- "the enactment of uganda's anti-homosexuality act is a tragic violation of universal human rights -- one that is not worthy of the ugandan people, and one that jeopardizes the prospects of critical economic growth for the entire country. i join with people around the world, including many in uganda, in calling for its immediate repeal. no one should have to live in constant fear for their life or being subjected to violence and discrimination. it is wrong." those are the words of joe biden, the president. i want to ask you, how important it is that there is international condemnation. on the one hand have joe biden condemning this and threatening sanctions. on the other hand, looking at a "vanity fair" piece, anti-gay sentiment in uganda has climbed in recent years due in no small part to american evangelicals who spent more than $20 million fighting lgbtq rights in the country between 2007-2020, according to "the washington post." scott lively spearheaded this in

uganda.s a group of very well connected american anti gay conservative evangelical activists who traveled to africa, travel to uganda for a big anti-gay conference. well these american activists were at that conference they spoke to a group that included legislators from uganda. the visiting americans told these ugandan legislators that in their national laws. in the law and uganda, they should have zero tolerance for homosexuality. these visiting americans flew in and told the ugandans parliamentarians that gay people are dangerous, that they were coming to molest uganda children and recruit them. that gay people were all predators on a mission to corrupt ugandans society and family values and they had to be stopped. the americans also told the uganda lawmakers, these leaders and legislators, they told them that as american experts on this subject they were able to confirm the scientific truth, they were there to attest to, which is that gay people can become straight if they want to. there

but they feel they will be safer in kenya than be imprisoned in uganda. and we're already seeing ugandans like i say radicalalized, hating on lgbtq persons. we're seeing violence. we're seeing many cases of violence, social exclusion, people getting beaten. we're seeing that increase. if this bill is passed or signed by the president we'll definitely see many of the lgbtq members leave the country. we'll see many get arrested. people like myself who are outspoken, i could end up getting arrested, and many of my colleagues who are outspoken as well could end up being in prison. >> i have to ask you if it made a difference for the obama administration, for the u.s. government to speak out against this proposed legislation when we saw an early iteration of this years ago, and in your opinion would it make a major difference if the biden administration, if american politicians of all stripes took a firmer stand on this, took a louder stand on this and put pressure on your country's government to not do it, would it make a difference if america stood up? >> it

total american investment in uganda is put at around $1 billion a year.there are other ways, other incentives that could be in jeopardy right now. and it's worth making the point as well that condemnation of these new laws in uganda is not confined to the democrats. the republican senator, ted cruz, called the new anti—homosexuality law in uganda an "abomination and grotesque". live now to rodney croome, a spokesperson for national lgbtq+ advocacy organisation, just equal australia. festival, your reaction to this law being passed.— festival, your reaction to this law being passed. thank you for havin: law being passed. thank you for having me _ law being passed. thank you for having me on- _ law being passed. thank you for having me on. as _ law being passed. thank you for having me on. as a _ law being passed. thank you for having me on. as a gay - law being passed. thank you for having me on. as a gay man - law being passed. thank you for| having me on. as a gay man who has fought for equality for the lgbt community for decades, i am deeply angry about

and their american anti-gay propaganda export operation worked in uganda, or it helped.rs, some who attended these conferences, pushed extreme punishments for people gay in their country. it became known internationally as the kill the gays bill. that's what it aimed to do, it prescribed death by hanging for the crime of homosexuality. there was such an intense international backlash to the law, the american activists who promoted this tried to distance themselves from what they had done. they were shocked by the drastic nature of the kill the gays bill, they said, that was introduced in the parliament. but the ugandans we talked to confirmed that those american activists had inspired the law with their bonkers anti-gay pseudoscience and claims to expertise. now the way that story ended, at least the way most american coverage of that story ended is that the wave of international condemnation for the kill the gays bill was so overwhelming even though the ugandan government was in favor of it, they shelved it. that was 2009. but these americans who pushed that to happen,

which is in uganda, which we will talk about in a little bit. one of the things we have indicated in terms of the recommendation for the future is to really highlight, confront this issue of capture. try to mitigate it. i think it's incumbent upon the united states to use the tools at our disposal to not just push things under the carpet, but to elevate the issue and make sure that we are in a kind of conversation that we need to have with our counterparts. i also think it's really important to help develop the institutions that can serve as a counterweight, if you will, civil society, looking at other elements outside of the executive that's trying to maintain its own regime survival. assistance to the judiciary. assistance to the free press. these are all elements that the united states government could support in these countries to chide to adjust the issues of elite capture and tried to mitigate, highlight those, mitigate them and lay out a course of action for the future. >> the situation couldn't be more different in ukraine. when the midd
