On May 19th, millions will watch as the award-winning documentary God Loves Uganda airs on PBS and is released on Netflix and DVD.
Activists around the country will ask the question, “What can we do to stop U.S. right-wing evangelicals from exporting attacks on LGBTQ people and women?”
Political Research Associates and Rev. Dr. Kapya Kaoma are launching a new tool to help answer that question!
American Culture Warriors in Africa: A Guide to the Exporters of Homophobia and Sexism is the groundbreaking new book designed to educate U.S. audiences and motivate all people of conscience to take action that interrupts the persecution of women and sexual minorities overseas.
The book includes:
- Profiles of the American bad actors most responsible for the international assault on LGBTQ people and reproductive justice
- An overview of their culture war campaigns in Africa
- Guidelines for concrete action we can take here in the U.S. to interrupt the continued export of American culture wars abroad-including a case study in effective local organizing
American Culture Warriors in Africa releases on May 19th, the same day as the national PBS broadcast and DVD release of Roger Ross Williams’ award-winning documentary film.
Pre-Orders have begun, and supporters are being asked to participate in an Indiegogo campaign to raise funds to ship the book to activists in Africa who would otherwise be banned from reading it.
A preview of the book is available for download from Dropbox here: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/zoez7smgmer9jkw/jJ9rCAsYsA
