The American evangelical roots of Uganda’s new anti-LGBTI law w/Kasha Jacqueline Nabagesera

Ugandan activist Kasha Jacqueline Nabagesera explains how US evangelicals exported anti-LGBT politics to Uganda, which has now passed a sweeping law broadly criminalizing LGBTI people for the second time in a decade.

LGBTI stands for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Intersex—this is the preferred acronym used in Uganda.

Kasha Jacqueline Nabagesera is a founder of the LGBTI movement in Uganda, and the founder of Freedom & Roam Uganda, a prominent human rights organization that addresses discrimination against lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and intersex people. Nabagasera opened Uganda’s first gay bar and organized the country’s first pride parade. She’s also the first LGBTI rights activist to be awarded the Martin Ennals Award for Human Rights Defenders, and additionally received the Right Livelihood Award for his activism in 2015. She currently resides in Massachusetts.
