I asked Isaac if there was a safe place for Kampala’s gay muny to meet. He said the cy had a lbian-owned bar that, once a week, has a gay night. But that kd of affectn isn’t unique to gay men Kampala.

ONE GAY MAN’S ADVENTUR UGANDA
Though I never feared for my safety as a gay man Uganda the fact remas that, polilly, homosexuals are not wele. The laws don’t mentn homosexualy as such, but sodomy — eher dog, tryg to do or tryg to fd — is crimalized and remas heavily penalized, sometim up to seven years prison.
