But I think what makes him more attractive is his breadth of knowledge and wisdom at such as young age. He makes references, makes quotes and mentions who they belong to. So possibly this is the reason non angry people respect what he says. Whether you are an agreement thats a different story. Also many of the interviews he has done the men are hosting them and they are also in agreement or respect his opinion.

    Incorrect! 1. Mwanga was King in Baganda (now Uganda) in the 19th century. By then, colonialism and interactions with Europeans and Arabs were widespread in Africa..From an excerpt in a book by Sylvia Tamusuza who is a professor in Uganda, “After the Arabs and other foreigners had come to Buganda, promiscuity became rampant…those Arabs also introduced another bad behavior, that of fellow men making other men their women [wives]… Mwanga was often given to the practice of sodomy, allegedly learnt from Arabs.” 2. The paintings of the Bushmen in South Africa, again can be traced back to when Germans came to Africa. 3. There is no concrete proof that homosexuality existed in Africa pre Arab and pre European interference. Why is that these people can tie homosexuality back to Africa, but all of the civilizations that we had with universities, thriving civilizations, etc, NOBODY HAS RECORD OF IT? WHY? They can’t even get the origins of Ancient Egypt right! Y’all need to stop letting these people be your “teachers!” Books are everywhere. Pick them up and do the research yourself! These people are constantly rewriting history, and we’re all falling for it! I love what Jidena is doing. I love most of his messages. But his words on homosexuality in Africa are wrong and misleading!

    Amina Williams Thank you. My sista did her research. You’re very thorough too. Mwanga had 16 wives and some children, but had a lust for young men. And when they refused his advances, he had them executed. This sounds more like a dude who suffered from a vice, than somebody to be upheld as a gay hero.
