Many of us have no idea that Unitarian Universalists have congregations in Africa. Today there was a courageous protest and advocacy by the UUs in Uganda. They had a conference to protest the proposed Unganda government's "Anti-homosexuality Bill of 2009" which is introduced into the Ugandan parliament. This bill would criminalize homosexuality with punishments including life in prison and capital punishment. The bill would also threaten GLBT allies.
I am enormously proud of the Ugandan UUs, and for our UUA President Rev. Peter Morales, for lending them his support and encouragement.
