In this episode, we journey through the vibrant history of Pride Month, exploring its origins, significance, and the milestones that have shaped the LGBTQ+ movement. From the Stonewall Riots to the global celebrations today, we celebrate the progress and acknowledge the ongoing struggles.
We then shift our focus to Uganda, a country where being openly trans is fraught with challenges, especially under the newly enacted anti-homosexuality law. This legislation has had profound effects on the LGBTQ+ community, severely restricting their rights to assemble, express themselves, and live openly. We delve into the stories of trans individuals navigating life in a society where acceptance is rare and discrimination is rampant. Through personal narratives and expert insights, we uncover the resilience, courage, and activism driving change and advocating for trans rights in Uganda.
Join us for an enlightening and poignant discussion that honors the past, celebrates the present, and looks toward a future of equality and acceptance for all.
