Uganda anti gay bill kampala 2011 5 13

Uganda's parliament shelved its notorious anti-gay bill on May 13, 2011. Here members of the Ugandan gay community attend the funeral of murdered gay activist David Kato on January 28, 2011. Although the police claimed Kato's killing was the result of a petty robbery, many members of the gay and the human rights community charge the murder was a hate crime, a result of the climate of intolerance toward gays that grew because of the anti-homosexuality bill.
