We found ourselves once again in Uganda, where something important had happened involving the Ugandan president. Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni, a man of strong character, has enacted one of the world’s strictest anti-homosexual measures, prompting widespread condemnation both inside and outside the country, on an international scale. He amended the law in response to international pressure.<\/p>\n
When someone is stubborn and challenged to cross a certain line, it’s as if they’re crossing that invisible line. He chooses to cross this line to see how others react. This is precisely what the President of Uganda has done. He therefore signed a new law that adds provisions to existing legislation.<\/p>\n
Homosexual relations were already illegal in Uganda, as they are in over 30 African countries, but the new law goes much further by targeting lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer people.<\/p>\n
