Quickie Link: Uganda: Gay, Clergy Clash At People's Space
By vanrozenheim
(Uganda) - People advocating for the rights of homosexuals and those against the practice are using the People's Space at Hotel Africana in Kampala to air out their views. Drama ensued on Thursday when the Catholic and Anglican clergymen, who were condemning Gays, sat next to pro-Gay people who were watching a film on homosexuality. The film, which attracted several youth, showcased the various countries which have embraced Gays, particularly Egypt. As homosexuals and lesbians gave testimonies on how they were attracted to each other in the movie, the clergy were addressing a press conference to express their disappointment at Commonwealth member-states that were advocating for Gay rights.
