Being Queer in Uganda featuring Sandra Kwikiriza

The Anti-Homosexuality Act 2013 brought the world’s attention to the entrenched legal and social discrimination against the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and intersex (LGBTI) community in Uganda. Despite the legislation being repealed in 2014, there is substantial evidence of the law being enforced recently, with LGBTQI people frequently subject to arrest and arbitrary detentions. Sandra Kwikiriza a Ugandan queer woman and founder of Her Internet speaks to us about her lived experience as a queer woman living in Uganda.
