CGiii Comment

The havoc of religion's hatred versus the indomitable spirit of the minority...

This really is how documentaries should be made - no silly commentary, no hidden agenda and, carefully balanced...with all the parties concerned having their say.

There is so much passion in both camps - the American Evangelists are the epitome of cunning misguidedness, the politicians, the journalists, the Church...they are all a blight on humanity.

The joviality of the activists, smiling in the face of adversity, is as heartwarming as a child taking its first step...their mission, their ambition is a tribute to and a triumph of humanity.

We are all conceived the same way...let us all be perceived equal.

Hugely important, incredibly humbling, deeply moving.

RIP Mr Kato

In Uganda, a new bill threatens to make homosexuality punishable by death. David Kato - Uganda's first openly gay man - and his fellow activists work against the clock to defeat the legislation while combating vicious persecution in their daily lives.
