Hans Senfuma appeared in the premiere of the 2025 Fall Season of the WYATT! Podcast (#Wyattonair )! This explosive episode exposes Uganda's 2023 Anti-Homosexuality Act, which prohibits any form of sexual relations between persons of the same sex, in the guise of "protecting" the family structure. Same-sex relations were already illegal in Uganda before the passage of this legislation, as well as in more than 30 other African countries. However, Uganda's appalling and egregious law goes much further and is one of the world's toughest bans.

Hi, I’m Hans Senfuma - a poet, writer, and LGBTQ+ activist in Uganda. Every day, I work to give voice to our community in a country where LGBTQ+ people face extreme legal and social barriers.

I’m sharing my stories through poetry, essays, and soon, my first book—and I want to continue advocating for equality and safety while creating art that inspires the world.

Your support allows me to live safely, focus on my creative and advocacy work, and keep fighting for a Uganda where LGBTQ+ people can thrive.

Why Your Support Matters

Living openly in Uganda as an LGBTQ+ activist means constant challenges. Basic needs like safe housing and utilities are critical for survival—and without them, my advocacy and storytelling work cannot continue.

With your help, I can:

Maintain secure housing that keeps me safe from harassment
Cover essential living expenses (utilities, internet, and basic needs)
Focus on producing poetry, stories, and creative projects that highlight LGBTQ+ lives
Build content that educates and inspires an international audience

How You Can Make a Difference

I’ve set a goal of $800/month, which directly supports these essentials. But beyond numbers, your contribution:

Amplifies my voice—through poetry, stories, and advocacy updates
Builds community awareness—helping people worldwide understand LGBTQ+ experiences in Uganda
Supports tangible projects—from my upcoming book to mini-documentaries and storytelling events

Even a small donation makes a meaningful impact.

Extras / Incentives for Monthly Supporters:

To thank my supporters, I offer:

Exclusive poetry and short stories delivered monthly via email or Substack
Behind-the-scenes updates on book projects and creative work
Personal thank you messages or shoutouts for generous supporters

Stand with me today. Your support keeps my work alive, my home safe, and my stories reaching the world.

A Heartfelt Request

Uganda’s anti-homosexuality law prohibits LGBT individuals like me from being employed, stripping us of the ability to earn a stable income.

If you believe in the importance of my work — standing up for the rights of the LGBT community in a place where we are silenced and marginalized — I humbly ask for your support.

Please consider donating to help me reach my monthly goal of $800. Every contribution, no matter how small, brings me closer to stability and strengthens my ability to keep pushing forward.

Your generosity will not only support my personal safety but also fuel the broader fight for a future where no one in Uganda has to live in fear because of who they are.

Please donate today and stand with me in this urgent cause.

Thank you for your kindness, compassion, and belief in the power of advocacy.

With gratitude,

Hans Senfuma
