It's been a year since Uganda's Anti-Homosexuality Act came into force, imposing severe penalties on queer Ugandans: twenty-year sentences for 'promoting' homosexuality, life imprisonment for homosexual acts, and even the death penalty for so-called 'aggravated homosexuality.' This harsh legislation has sparked a disturbing trend across Africa, raising global concerns for LGBTQ+ rights.
The Royal African Society and GAY TIMES unite to delve deep into this urgent issue.
This video explores:
The colonial roots of these draconian laws, tracing back to the UK.
The external funding fuelling anti-LGBTQ+ legislation in Africa.
The crucial question: What should the UK Parliament do, considering its historical involvement?
Featuring a panel of experts, this discussion will offer unique perspectives on the role of Non-African players in Uganda's queer liberation movement. Our goal is to provide actionable recommendations for the APPG for Africa to influence UK policy and support global LGBTQ+ rights effectively.
