Secretary of State John Kerry will send scientists to Uganda to discuss the Anti-Gay law with President Yoweri Museveni.
This came about after Museveni's scientists claimed that no one's born gay. Because of that notion, the Anti-Gay law was signed. However, Secretary Kerry wants to challenge that idea:
"I talked personally to President Museveni just a few weeks ago, and he committed to meet with some of our experts so that we could engage him in a dialogue as to why what he did could not be based on any kind of science or fact, which is what he was alleging. He welcomed that and said that he was happy to receive them and we can engage in that kind of conversation… maybe we can reach a point of reconsideration."Secretary Kerry's convo with Museveni is noted as the "tailored approach" to the State Department’s developing strategy on international anti-LGBT legislation.
Kerry said:
"There’s been already a review taking place to figure out what the options are as to how we can begin to change minds, move leaders, reach the public, the same kind of education that took place frankly here in our country."I'm interested to see the outcome of this
