On March 26, the School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston (SMFA) presents a screening of CALL ME KUCHU, a documentary which depicts the last year in the life of David Kato, a courageous, quick-witted, and steadfast gay Ugandan activist whose incredible achievements were not fully recognized until after his death, but his memory has inspired a new generation of human rights advocates.
Directed by Katherine Fairfax Wright and Malika Zouhali-Worrall, CALL ME KUCHU follows Kato and a number of activists as they fight to repeal Uganda’s homophobic laws and liberate his fellow lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender men and women, or “kuchus.”
Following the screening, there will be a Q+A with Ugandan activist "Long Jones" Abdallah Wambere, one of the many kuchus featured in the documentary film.
