The recent attention to human-rights abuses in Uganda is a good reminder to do some research with NGOs that have been on the ground there for a very long time. See the Amnesty International Uganda page for the past several years of annual reports on human rights in the country as well as specific articles about the various campaigns against gay and lesbian Ugandans, many of which are supported from the United States. In response to the Kony 2012 campaign in particular, AI urges respect for human rights in any efforts to bring Kony to justice.
