Longjones, Katherine Fairfax Wright Explain How LGBT People are Persecuted in Uganda
Longjones, one of the characters in the documentary Call Me Kuchu, and filmmaker Katherine Fairfax Wright talk with StarCam at the LA Film Festival about being lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender in Uganda.
"I'm one of the characters reflecting exactly what it means being an LGBT person back in Uganda, what it means living in such a hostile environment and what the law proposes ," says Longjones. "They want people to be killed because of their sexual orientation. Everyone who has the authority should be able to report within 24 hours. If you do not, then it's a crime and you are charged actually and the minimum sentence proposal is three months so it's very weird."
