Steven Kabuye had been followed for sometime before two men ambushed him on his morning commute in January. Still recovering, he fled Uganda days later with bandages still on.
Kabuye is now reestablishing himself in Toronto, Canada with the help of Rainbow Railroad, a nonprofit organization that funds the transportation and reestablishment of LGBTQ people at immediate risk of violence due to their sexual orientation. From his new home, he continues to run his grassroots social justice organization, Coloured Voices Media Foundation – Truth to LGBTQ Uganda.
