Movie Night! January 23

We had a good crowd for our showing of “God Loves Uganda”, an award-winning documentary by director Roger Ross Williams. It was premiered at the 2013 Sundance Film Festival and has been nominated for an Academy Award. The story is about the influence that American Evangelicals have had on the Ugandan government, encouraging them to adopt severe penalties (including the death penalty) on gay people. We screened it at the Ethical Society.
This issue remains in the news:
