Folks - @KimahliPowell here, CEO of Rainbow Railroad. Today, we have received concerning news - Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni has signed into law one of the world’s most extreme pieces of anti-LGBTQI+ legislation. Here is what you need to know: The bill has already received international condemnation - which Rainbow Railroad supports - including from @JoeBiden in a recently released statement found here: whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/…

Rainbow Railroad stands with the LGBTQI+ community in Uganda, and today we need your support. Please share the following calls to action for the Canadian government, private sector, and civil society organizations. These come directly from activists on the ground. #Thread The current legislative assault threatens LGBTQI+ Ugandans and LGBTQI+ migrants in Uganda seeking refuge from other countries. It is critical to act now to prevent President Museveni from signing the Anti-Homosexuality Act into law.

Hey folks, @KimahliPowell here - Executive Director at Rainbow Railroad. I wanted to take over our account to talk about this horrific tweet - and why we should all immediately join in condemning it. A #thread: First, we should not quote or engage in the post directly. In doing so we’d directly spread this message of hate - which is ultimately their goal. Don’t do it.
