The brutal and horrific death of Ugandan Human Rights Defender David Kato is a blow to our efforts fightinginjustice in Uganda and the world over. David’s charisma can never be replaced, however his death gives us more strength than ever to fight on. Unfortunately David’s death has become part of the price that we have to pay to win full equality.
I send a strong message to those exporters of hate to our already vulnerable communities to stop it lest the world return to the dark ages.
Let us pledge to fight to keep his spirit alive and help bring equality and freedom for all to David’s home town, Mukono, Uganda, and to the rest of the world.
May his soul rest in peace.
-Moses
