The president of Uganda has called on African leaders to reject ‘the promotion of homosexuality’ as he is expected to sign the anti-LGBTQ+ bill passed by parliament last month. And while the bill has drawn condemnation from UN officials, it should be noted that the anti-LGBTQ movement gained momentum in Uganda with the arrival of American evangelical missionaries in the 1980s in their failed attempt to battle the HIV epidemic in the country. We hear from pastor and activist Martin Ssempa, who says that the West's attitude towards Uganda looks increasingly hypocritical.
