Ugandan Gay Activist Wins RFK Human Rights Award - 2 views

  •  
    My information about Uganda is admittedly limited, so I didn't know where to begin when looking for something to post. Then, I remembered hearing a lot about the criminalization of homosexuality and the Anti-Homosexuality Bill in the media a lot. These are issues in the world that I follow often and seemed relevant to my view. I searched for more recent articles on the issue and say that an Ugandan activist won this award and thought it was an interesting article.

Kakamega Days: October 2006 - 1 views

  •  
    Growing up, I never heard about Uganda, let alone any country besides America or Mexico. It was not until I got to college that I was shown the vastness of our world, but Uganda was still not a country I was told much about. Up until a few weeks ago, I knew Uganda was a country in Africa. Now I know that it is much more than just a country in Africa. When Karen began to tell us of her experience in Uganda, the one thing that stood out to me was the boda boda, Uganda's name for a bicycle. I just really like saying the word: boda boda. I decided to search this term in google and came across an American's blog from 2006. His entry about boda bodas is about the pricing of boda bodas (they can be taken as taxis) and how, as an American, he essentially got ripped off. I thought this was an interesting thing to bookmark because it presents another person's interaction with Uganda and their own exploration of their journey.
