[image description: A series of tweets from Mikael Chuks Owunna @OwningMyTruth: American evangelical pastors were the key architects of Uganda’s initially proposed anti-LGBT law that mandated DEATH sentences 4 LGBT ppl. These pastors and missionaries have played a CENTRAL role in advancing anti-LGBT legislation not only in the US but in Africa as well And they worked alongside colonial regimes that not only created homophobia & transphobia as we now know it but advanced it across the WORLD. So it’s absurd to me hearing all of these fools like HRC and others going on about radical islam when AMERICANS are inciting killings & brutality against lgbtq people AROUND the world. where we have lgbtq people seeking asylum because their home communities have been made unsafe for them by the western imperialist advancement of homophobia and transphobia into our lands. People need to STFU about Islam being inherently homophobic/transphobic and look at how those systems are historically rooted in the WEST. And all of the brutality that is visited upon lgbtq folks, and especially twoc daily here speaks volumes to those historical roots]
Give credit where it’s due.
