The Influence of the Western World on Uganda's Anti-Gay Law

Ugandan law does not criminalize homosexual identity claims but it does criminalize all acts of sex between persons of the same gender. The new legislation comes with more serious penalties and greater specificity. More than 30 of Africa's 54 nations have similar legislation further other nations on the continent are considering legislation modeled after Uganda's in any event a majority of African nations already have such laws on the book.
