In this episode, we explore the remarkable story of the Abayudaya, Uganda's Jewish community, with Chief Rabbi Gershom Sizomu, the first native-born ordained rabbi in Sub-Saharan Africa. Rabbi Sizomu shares the history of his community, from its founding through persecution under Idi Amin's regime to its contemporary revival. Our conversation examines how the Abayudaya navigate their dual identity as both distinctly Jewish and distinctly Ugandan.Show Notes:Abayudaya: Music from the Jewish People of Uganda (https://folkways.si.edu/abayudaya-music-from-the-jewish-people-of-uganda/judaica-sacred-world/album/smithsonian) Send us a text

In this episode of Capital for Good we speak with Michael Posner, the Jerome Kohlberg Professor of Ethics and Finance at NYU's Stern School of Business, director of the school's Center for Business and Human Rights, a long-time leader in the field, luminary thinker, advocate, former State Department Official, and the author of the new book, Conscience Incorporated. We begin with Posner's early interests in international human rights issues, sparked in law school when he was tasked with investigating atrocities in Uganda under Idi Amin. He lays out the principals of early, post-World War II and UN inspired human rights law focused on universality, and the responsibility of governments to promote, protect and enforce human rights. Notably absent from this early framework is the role of business. Posner explains that his interest in the intersection of human rights took shape when he began to observe that large multinational corporations had a critical role to play, particularly when they operated in weak states that lacked the ability to protect human rights. We discuss why companies should care, fundamentally, about human rights on ethical dimensions (“outsourcing might be a smart business strategy, but you can't outsource responsibility if you're the main economic beneficiary,”) and because there are material costs that can arise from irresponsible practices, often reputational crises and/or regulation. We explore the deficiencies of various business frameworks: how and why Milton Friedman's shareholder primacy worldview fails to account for environmental and social externalities and a broader set of stakeholders; how and why ESG conflate environmental and social considerations and emphasize risk rather than meaningful performance on issues like climate change or worker protections. Posner suggests that this moment of backlash against all things ESG, DEI and “woke capitalism” offers us an opportunity to do better. We touch on sometimes complex tensions between climate change and human rights concerns, acknowledging that climate change can only be solved if we transition to a lower carbon economy, with the scale up of renewable energy and the development of technologies like electric vehicles, which in turn rely on things like batteries. We know that today batteries are reliant on inputs like critical minerals, long mined in ways and places rife with human rights challenges, and today often controlled by Chinese companies. China is also the world's largest and lowest cost producer of solar panels, and much of that production occurs in Xinjiang, with forced labor of the Uyghur ethnic minority. Posner discusses a number of ways to better integrate climate and human rights considerations. Before opening the floor to audience questions, we discuss the evolution of technology and human rights issues. When Posner was at the State Department from 2010 to 2012, he had a front tow seat to the Arab Spring and the “Facebook Revolution,” witnessing how activists used social media to fight authoritarianism. Although he says he still believes in the power of technology to open up political discourse, he has become much more concerned about issues of data privacy, surveillance, harmful violent and incendiary content, information and disinformation, and ways in which companies try to shield themselves with first amendment (to which they are not legally subject) to avoid more vigorous content moderation or human rights engagement. We conclude with the role of corporate leaders when it comes to human rights. While Posner notes he is typically conservative about how much executives should speak out on specific issues, he believes strongly that “business leaders need to be attentive and active if there are fundamental threats to our democracy.” This episode of Capital for Good was recorded as part of Social Impact Week 2025, a week of social impact-related events for the Columbia Business School community, organized by the Social Enterprise Club, Green Business Club, Community Impact Club, and LEO Impact Fund.

To celebrate #IWD2025, The Newcomers Podcast will be publishing daily episodes between March 2nd - 8th celebrating a female immigrant. Come celebrate with us as we tell the stories of some of the many amazing immigrant heroines.Join us as we explore the bitter-sweet world of the immigrant.For our fourth #IWD2025 episode, I'm speaking with Shamira Madhany, Managing Director & Deputy Executive Director at World Education Services (WES).“We're having the wrong conversation about immigration.” If there's one person qualified to say this, It's Shamira. Her family came to Canada from Kenya in the early 1970s, fleeing potential political instability after Idi Amin expelled Ugandan Asians.Despite being well-educated with business experience, Shamira's father couldn't find employment in his field. Her father took a job at a golf club (cleaning, picking up towels), while her mother worked in a factory.This experience led to Shamira's life mission—solving the disconnect between Canada's need for workers and the barriers preventing high-skilled immigrants from getting jobs.In her words, “I don't want to give out umbrellas anymore because it's too tiring. I want to change the climate.”In this conversation, Shamira and I explore how it felt watching her parents struggle to find their footing after immigrating to Canada. We also chat about:* Why she joined WES* The economic impact of immigrant underemployment* The cost of workforce shortages to Canadian businesses* The biggest issue with the Canadian immigration system* How we can connect the macro (immigration policy) with the micro (the immigrant experience* The work she and a host of other amazing souls are doing to make it easier for high-skilled immigrants to get the jobs they deserve, and more good stuff.

How would you cope with a death threat on your family?And as a consequence you might move houses, careers and even countries to find safety. As Kenny did. And yet safety is also an internal emotional feeling that has to be witnessed, held and expressed to make sense and find a home.Kenny Mammarella D-Cruz returns to the Soulhubbers Podcast, this time with Carmen Rendell to share his personal journey of escaping to refugee camps in Italy and the UK, away from Idi Amin's dictatorship of Uganda and finally to the remote Welsh town of Fishguard. He talks into how, as a 60 year old, the stories he puts to feelings still spook him. How he falls apart and comes together again and again. He shares intimate details of how he's finding tools through his life, such as breathing and deeper self understanding to let go of his unhealthy mental and physical coping mechanisms.We talk about suicide, feeling feelings and trauma, and how he gets to his golden shadow, via the dark shadow.Kenny very much follows in the community sharing as his father did when he first arrived in the UK.He brought hockey here, he took it to school, so now it's a big deal in the area. He used to play hockey for Uganda. He started the Friendship Circle for older and lonely people. I think that was 30 years ago. He started a charity. He started and was the first Goan Mayor in the UK, and in the year, the bicentenary of the last invasion of Britain, which was our town.It's a beautifully insightful sharing of how ‘doing the work' can change you and enables you to go on to work and support others go through their life challenges, trauma and dark nights of the soul.

Da britisk-ugandiske Jennifer Nansubuga Makumbi ville forsøke å få debutboka si Kintu (til norsk ved Johanne Fronth-Nygren) utgitt i Europa, fikk hun nei fra forlag etter forlag – romanen var «for afrikansk»: Den handlet ikke om kolonitiden, eller om Idi Amin, de to tingene ved Uganda vestlige lesere har kjennskap til. Dessuten hadde karakterene så vanskelige navn. For det er vel ingen europeiske lesere som har lyst til å lære noe de ikke vet fra før om ugandisk historie?Makumbi har skrevet en episk familiesaga som tar oss med gjennom Ugandas historie – fra kongeriket Buganda før europeerne kom, og til dagens samfunn, der hun kombinerer myter og bibelsk historie med muntlig fortellertradisjon og eventyr. I et lyrisk og fortettet språk møter vi stamfar Kintu på 1700-tallet, som utsettes for en mørk forbannelse, og følger vi hans mange etterkommerne inn vår tid, der de alle på ulike vis strever med sine egne forbannelser. Ikke minst ser vi hvordan slektens menn strever med trange kjønnsroller og hvordan de skal leve opp til samfunnets mannsideal. Kanskje er dette den virkelige forbannelsen, som rammer livene deres en etter en og forgifter hele samfunnet?Jennifer Nansubuga Makumbi debuterte med romanen Kintu i 2014, etter å ha vunnet en manuskonkurranse hos kenyanske Kwani Trust. Hun har siden gitt ut novellesamlingen Manchester Happened og romanen The First Woman, og vunnet en rekke priser for sine bøker.På Litteraturhuset møter hun forfatter og kunstnerisk leder for organisasjonen Radical Books Collective, Bhakti Shringarpure, til samtale om en familie og en nasjon, om forbannelser og forsoning.Samtalen er på engelsk.Arrangementet er støttet av NORAD. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

When British-Ugandan Jennifer Nansubuga Makumbi wanted her debut novel Kintu published in Europe, publisher after publisher told her no – the novel was “too African”: It was neither about the colonial period nor about Idi Amin, the two things about Uganda that Western readers have heard of. And also, the characters had such complicated names. They couldn't imagine any European readers would like to learn something new about Uganda and its history.Makumbi's novel is an epic family saga, taking us through the history of Uganda – from the kingdom of Buganda before the arrival of the Europeans, and up to today's society, in which she combines myths and Biblical history with fairytales and oral storytelling tradition. In a distilled, lyrical language, we meet the patriarch Kintu in the mid-eighteenth century, when he is subject to a dark curse, before we follow his many descendants into our own time, where they all, in different ways, struggle with curses of their own. We particularly see how the men of the family struggle to live up to society's masculine ideals. Maybe this is the real curse, affecting each of their lives and slowly poisoning the entire society?Kintu is Jennifer Nansubuga Makumbi's first novel, published in 2014 after she won a manuscript competition by Kenyan Kwani Trust. Makumbi has since published the short story collection Manchester Happened and the novel The First Woman, and she has won a number of awards for her writing.At the House of Literature, she is joined by author and creative director for the organization Radical Books Collective, Bhakti Shringarpure, for a conversation about a family and a nation, about curses and consolation.The event was supported by NORAD. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

First episode of Dictator December! A new dictator every week! Was Idi Amin really a cannibal? Did he really write letters to Queen Elizabeth? Did he freeze the heads of his slain enemies? Did he really have 60 kids!?!? Today Fatou and Maz discuss Idi Amin, his cult of personality and crimes against humanity!

No hay película buena sin un buen malo. Te pongo el ejemplo de “La Guerra de las Galaxias”. ¿Quién se acuerda del “blandito” de Luke Skywalker? Nadie o casi nadie… porque ¡todos nos acordamos de Darth Vader y Han Solo! El malo y el “malote” respectivamente. No, no vamos a hablar de los coches de los “malos de las películas” sino de los coches favoritos por los malos, muy malos en general: Delincuentes, asesinos y dictadores. Pero os hablo de las películas como reflejo de la forma de pensar general: Los malos suelen tener coches negros o al menos oscuros, grandes o muy grandes y caros o muy caros… Desde los coches usados para la mafia rusa hasta los empleados por los gánster, desde los preferidos de los grandes dictadores a los elegidos por los “quinquis” españoles de los 70 o los traficantes sudamericanos, los coches favoritos de “los malos” deben cumplir estos requisitos: -Tamaño -Discreción -Potencia -Robustez 1. Cadillac Town Sedan (1928). Este era el coche, entre otros, de Al Capone el gánster más temido del Chicago de los años 20 y 30. De serie este modelo contaba con un poderoso V8 de 110 CV, pero los “capos” de la época, como el propio Al Capone, le instalaban “extras” como radio para escuchar a la policía, blindaje de acero o cristales a prueba de balas… pequeños “detallitos”. 2. Citroën Traction Avant (1934). La excelencia de este modelo le llevó a ser coche presidencial, a convertirse en todo un icono de la Resistencia francesa durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial para, finalmente, convertirse en el coche favorito de atracadores armados, como era el caso de “Pierrot el loco” y su banda, que la prensa llamaba "banda del Avant Traction". Y es que este coche por su rapidez y fiabilidad era ideal para cometer violentos atracos y luego salir por piernas… 3. Mercedes-Benz W31 G4 (1934). Para mi más malos que los delincuentes son los dictadores. Y que yo sepa solo hay un coche diseñado por y para dictadores. Porque hay modelos nuncios diseñados para el dictador de ese país, pero el Mercedes de la serie W31 más conocido por Mercedes G4 fue diseñado para el uso personal de Hitler, quien regaló estos modelos a otros dictadores, unos aliados como Mussolini y otros “amigos” creo que, con comillas, como Francisco Franco… 4. Rolls-Royce Phantom III (1936). He querido huir del cine, porque ya hicimos un video, pero no he resistido la tentación de incluir el coche de un “malo” auténticamente de película, el de “Goldfinger”. La verdad es que en la saga 007 hay malos de todos los colores, pero hay que reconocer el buen gusto de Auric Goldfinger que se movía a bordo de un precioso Rolls-Royce Phantom III Sedan De Ville, con motor V12 de 7,3 litros. Puedes verlo en el museo del cine de Londres, dentro de la colección de coches Bond. 5. Mercury Eight (1946). Este coche era un auténtico “Best Seller” entre los gánster de los USA en los años 40 y sobre todo 50. El origen de este coche es interesante, porque a mediados de los 40, Lincoln-Mercury se convierte en una división separada de Ford y quiere hacer coches de mayor nivel que la marca matriz. 6. Mercedes-Benz 600 Pullman (1963). Siento que haya tres Mercedes en esta lista… pero en este caso este modelo ha sido el favorito de muchos personajes que no eran malos para nada, desde el propio Papa Pablo VI hasta Elvis Presley. Pero era un coche que por su imagen de ser “Lo más de lo más”, capacidad de representación, confort y amplitud, sedujo a muchos malos… entre ellos a Nicolae Ceauçescu, Pablo Escobar, Sadam Husseim o Idi Amin… y también a Fidel Castro, por cierto. 7. BMW 528i (1972). Hablo concretamente del modelo E12, porque es el coche del “Enemigo público número 1”. Jacques Mesrine fue declarado por la policía francesa como el “Enemigo Público Número 1” por sus frecuentes y violentos atracos de los que huía en su BMW 528i que en 1972 era un cochazo, grande y rápido. Su motor era un 6 cilindros en línea de casi 3 litros y 177 CV. 8. Lexus GS (1991). SI te hablan de “Mafia” piensas en Italia o Rusia, pero la mafia japonesa, la llamada Yakuza, también tiene los suyo. Son malos, pero son muy patriotas, pues les gustan las grandes berlinas, como a todos los mafiosos, pero ellos prefieren modelos Made in Japan, como el Lexus GS. 9. Chevrolet Tahoe (1995). Este es un caso curioso. Porque este modelo nace en los USA con un pacífico coche familiar, pero al otro lado del Mundo este modelo a caballo entre un SUV y un TT, con nueve plazas, era muy apreciado por la mafia rusa para realizar ataques sonde eran necesarios muchos componentes humanos… 10. Mercedes G (2000). Los mafiosos rusos son muy refinados… y les gustan los buenos coches. Para ellos prefieren cómodas berlinas y limusinas, pero para sus miembros e incluso para su escolta prefieren robustos modelos de TT.

In this episode of Style DNA I go on a style journey with Entrepreneur, Celebrity Influencer, Presenter and Media Personality …the exquisite Rosemin. I first met Rosemin when she hosted a dinner for me in Dubai in 2018 to promote my new collection…what was lovely is that pretty much every woman attending that dinner arrived wearing Wakeley, and it felt like the most generous endorsement of me as a designer.   Rosemin grew up in Canada, her family emigrated there from East Africa in the 70's escaping Idi Amin's regime and effectively having to start over but exhibiting an incredible entrepreneurial work ethic to Rosemin and her brother. Her early passion for fashion took her to study fashion marketing at The London College of Fashion and then Rosemin cut her teeth in the fashion world working for Mr Ford, as in Tom Ford himself. Clearly the opportunity to work so closely with him was incredibly important to Rosemin, witnessing first hand how he approached his Creative Director role.   Following her time at the Gucci Group she was head hunted to help launch Juicy Couture in the UK and Europe. Her honed eye meant that she approached celebrity seeding in a very targeted way, and it worked. Celebrities from Kate Moss, to Gwyneth Paltrow to Queen Rania of Jordan were all photographed wearing the newly expanded collection of Juicy… the sunglasses, the slip dresses and the trench coats.   Rosemin recently remarried in Paris and we talk about her Faraz Manan wedding lenge (exquisite) and her Tamara Ralph gown (fairytale)..and why she chose these designers. We discuss the longevity of Chanel…what a brilliant job Stella McCartney is doing championing sustainability in fashion…her style icons…and the joy of wearing an Abaya …   I hope you enjoy this episode …thank you Rosemin for being such an inspiring guest!

In May 1976, four terrorists hijacked an aeroplane as it took off from Athens airport. Most of the passengers were Israeli or Jewish. After a stop-off in Libya, the plane was flown to Uganda where, in front of the world's media, the next few days played out like some weird and unreal film. Would the Israelis comply with the terrorists' demands? Would the hostages be executed? Or – most unlikely of all – would the powers that be in Israel attempt a daring rescue mission? Those few days at Entebbe have been written about extensively since then. Films and documentaries have been produced, recounting these astonishing events. Many speak of the military daring and ingenuity of the Israelis. What they accomplished defied all logic. And yet few view this amazing event in the light of Bible prophecy. The Father promised to preserve His people. He stated openly that the might of the enemy would come to nought. That His children would survive, against all the odds. And for those with “eyes to see”, the Israeli soldiers' actions at Entebbe demonstrate this principle to be true for, as God has promised, “no weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper” Operation Thunderbolt, which took place in July 1976, was a daring rescue mission carried out by the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) to save Israeli hostages held by terrorists at Entebbe Airport in Uganda. While the operation displayed remarkable military precision and strategic planning, we can appreciate that divine intervention was key to the success of the mission. As detailed in this study, one can find many aspects within the event that could be seen as demonstrations of extraordinary circumstances aligning in favor of the rescue mission. The crisis began on June 27, 1976, when an Air France plane with 248 passengers was hijacked by members of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) and the German Revolutionary Cells. The terrorists redirected the aircraft to Entebbe Airport, where they held the Israeli passengers hostage while releasing non-Israeli passengers. Some notable elements include: Intelligence: The IDF obtained crucial intelligence about the location and layout of the airport, as well as the positions and capabilities of the terrorists. This information was instrumental in planning the mission and ensuring the element of surprise. Strategic Planning: Israeli forces meticulously planned and rehearsed the operation, taking into account the unique challenges they would face, such as the long distance from Israel and the need to navigate hostile territory. Internal and International Support: Israel's Prime Minister at the time, Yitzhak Rabin, displayed strong leadership and authorized the mission. Additionally, Israel received vital assistance from friendly nations, including the provision of old airport blueprints and refuelling support from Kenya. Speed and Precision: The IDF executed the operation with remarkable speed, allowing them to neutralize the terrorists, free the hostages, and evacuate them within a short timeframe. The precision of their assault minimized casualties and maximized the chances of success. Surprise and Decisiveness: The terrorists, as well as Ugandan dictator Idi Amin, were caught off guard by the Israeli raid. The element of surprise greatly contributed to the success of the operation. ******* This video was produced by the ChristadelphianVideo.org project, You can follow us online at.. #1 Our Main site... https://cdvideo.org #2 Our podcast on Podbean... https://cdvideo.org/podcast #3 Our podcast on Apple...https://cdvideo.org/podcast-apple #4 Our podcast on Anchor...https://cdvideo.org/truth-talk #5 Our facebook...https://facebook.com/OpenBibles #6 Our Whats App... http://cdvideo.org/WhatsApp #7 Our Instagram... http://cdvideo.org/Instagram #8 Our twitter... http://cdvideo.org/twitter Related to: No Weapon Formed Against Thee Shall Prosper https://youtu.be/aXIm79cOZIE

Dirch Passer har engang optrådt som Idi Amin. Holstebro Revyen 1976. Nicholas fortæller om den - ofte ret primitive måde - der er blevet gjort grin med Ugandas blodige diktator på, og hvordan Idi Amin aktivt brugte vestens hyggeracistiske karikaturer til at lede opmærksomheden væk fra hans egentlige forbrydelser. Vi skal også vende hollywood-udgaven af Idi Amin og høre den fantastiske historie om hans private kok; en af de vigtigste kilder til Idi Amins privatliv.

Idi Amín está considerado el dictador más sanguinario de la historia, seguramente por la leyenda que dice que era caníbal y se comía a los oponentes que mataba. Una historia escalofriante, ideal para disfrutar el día en el que un ex presidente tensó la cuerda de la hipocresía y la náusea. ¿Existen los buenos?

Welcome back to Bad Dads Film Review! Today's episode takes a deep dive into power and tyranny as we explore the top 5 most notorious dictators in film—both real and fictional. We'll then transition to a gripping discussion on Beasts of No Nation, followed by a lighter segment exploring Tales of Africa, offering a rich tapestry of African folklore.Top 5 Dictators in Film:Idi Amin in "The Last King of Scotland" (2006) - Forest Whitaker gives a chilling portrayal of Idi Amin, the Ugandan dictator. His performance captures the charisma and volatility that characterized Amin's rule, earning Whitaker an Academy Award.Coriolanus Snow in "The Hunger Games" series - Donald Sutherland plays the cold and calculating President of Panem, a fictional dictator whose manipulative governance involves pitting district against district in deadly games.Adolf Hitler in "Downfall" (2004) - Bruno Ganz's portrayal of Hitler's final days in his Berlin bunker offers a humanizing yet horrifying glimpse into the psyche of one of history's most infamous dictators.Palpatine in the "Star Wars" series - Emperor Palpatine, a fictional dictator whose quest for control of the galaxy embodies the classic traits of tyranny and corruption, showing how power can absolutely corrupt.T'Challa in "Black Panther" (2018) - While not a dictator in the traditional sense, T'Challa's role as the king of Wakanda brings up interesting discussions on autocratic rule and benevolent dictatorship in a fictional, technologically advanced African nation.Beasts of No Nation is a harrowing look at child soldiers under the command of a warlord in an unnamed African country. Directed by Cary Joji Fukunaga and based on the novel by Uzodinma Iweala, the film stars Idris Elba as the charismatic and brutal Commandant.

Historierne om Idi Amins vanvidsregime er begyndt at sprede sig, og det får flere af Amins gamle venner til at vende ham ryggen. Han er desperat. I et forsøg på at få nye allierede, lægger han sig ud med Israel. Men det skulle han aldrig have gjort. Det starter en dominoeffekt, og pludselig er det Idi Amin, der flygter for sit liv.

Idi Amin har fået rengøringsvanvid. Der skal ryddes op i Uganda. Han ser fjender overalt. Og de kan kun fjernes på den hårde måde. Det gælder ikke mindst alle de asiater, der bor i landet.

She is author of Walking with Gorillas: The Journey of an African Wildlife Vet."I was really excited to win the UN Champion of the Earth Award for our One Health approach to conservation. I was so excited when Dr. Jane Goodall wrote the foreword of my book, and she really has a big focus now on the younger generation through Roots and Shoots. And being that I developed my career by setting up a wildlife club at high school so that from a young age teenagers should know that they can make a difference. They don't have to be much older to make a difference.Even as a teenager, you can make a huge difference. I'm excited. My son wrote a book Zookeeper for a Week, which he wrote during the pandemic because he had spent a week at the zoo when he was 13. And when he was 16, he was able to write this book.So you're never too young to make a difference. And I think what I would like to tell many young people is to follow your dreams and the rest will follow. Even if what you're trying to do is something that no one has ever done before. Or let's say women are not considered, it's a male-dominated profession. Wildlife conservation, veterinary medicine in Uganda is still very male-dominated. And you shouldn't really worry about what people think about you, what culture, or society expects you to be doing. If you feel that it's an important thing to do, you should go ahead and do it. And it's so important to protect the natural world, to protect nature and the wildlife because we, we protect nature, we protect nature. We are ultimately protecting ourselves. Gorillas are so few numbers still. I mean, we are happy that the numbers are growing because of so many successful conservation efforts."www.ctph.orghttps://www.skyhorsepublishing.com/9781950994267/walking-with-gorillas/www.creativeprocess.infowww.oneplanetpodcast.orgIG www.instagram.com/creativeprocesspodcast

She is author of Walking with Gorillas: The Journey of an African Wildlife Vet."I have always wanted to be around animals and growing up, I cannot remember a time when there were no pets at home. My elder brother Apollo Katerega, who was 10 years older than me, also liked animals, especially dogs and was always bringing stray dogs and cats home. I was the last born of six children. My sister, Veronica Nakibule, who I followed, was five years older than me so were just outside each other's age bracket for playing. Thus the pets at home became my main companions, and we developed a strong bond.Along the way, I eventually fulfilled my lifelong dream to not only become a veterinarian, but a wildlife veterinarian. In 1996, I began to take care of the critically endangered mountain gorillas of Uganda. Since then, they've increased in number from six hundred and fifty to 1,063 individuals in Uganda, Rwanda, and the Democratic Republic of Congo(DRC). There are no mountain gorillas surviving in zoos outside their range countries, and their only hope is to keep the population thriving where they are naturally found.The gorillas have shaped my life's calling since I first studied them as a student at the Royal Veterinary College, University of London.

And they're coming up with their own projects for recycling, removing rubbish, all kinds of things, reducing firewood use in the forest. And all of that is helping. And from a young age, these students hopefully will end up becoming conservationists in the long term. So even if they're in Parliament, they're the kind of people, if someone says, 'Let's cut down trees, plant sugar cane.' They will be the first to say, 'No, this won't happen.'

Uganda, August 1972. President Idi Amin makes a shocking pronouncement – the country's South Asian population is being expelled. They have ninety days to leave. After packing scant possessions and countless memories, 50,000 Ugandan Asians vied for limited space in countries including Canada, India and the United Kingdom. More than 28,000 expellees from Britain's former colony arrived in the UK and began building new lives – but their incredible stories have, until now, remained largely hidden. Fifty years on from the exodus, The Exiled: Empire, Immigration and the Ugandan Asian Exodus (Coronet, 2023) by Lucy Fulford draws on first-hand interviews and testimonies, including from the author's family, to illuminate a time of painful alienation and incredible courage. As an entire people stepped into the unknown, a global diaspora was born, and the fate of the United Kingdom changed forever. Journeying across continents and decades, this staggering work of reportage illuminates an essential, and under-explored, chapter in post-colonial history, challenging politically expedient narratives to uncover the true fate of minorities at the end of empire. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose doctoral work focused on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

On today's show, I'm speaking with journalist and historian, Lucy Fulford about her non-fiction book, The Exiled. In The Exiled, Lucy delves into understanding the Asian expulsion from Uganda in 1972, which saw 80,000 South Asian Ugandans being given just 90 days to leave the country, by the dictator, Idi Amin. She goes way back, uncovering how the British empire led to so many South Asians finding home in Uganda, but how it also impacted the structure of Ugandan society and the impact on black Ugandans. The book is a mixture of Lucy's own family history, interviews she has undertaken, and copious amounts of research. The book takes us from pre-1972 Uganda, to the expulsion itself and beyond 1972, as countless families in the UK and elsewhere strived to build a new life. This is a really thorough and nuanced exploration of that part of history, also sprinkled with Lucy's own musings on race, identity. Lucy is an experienced multimedia journalist and filmmaker whose work centres on migration, conflict and climate.After graduating from the University of Bristol with a first-class honours degree in History – writing a dissertation on the Rwandan genocide – she studied media law, shorthand and reporting with the NCTJ and worked as a senior reporter and acting editor of a press agency, covering breaking news, crime and courts for the national press in London. Growing up between cultures has led to an interest in exploring identity and in her book, The exiled, she explores the generational legacy of forced migration, inspired in part by her family history.Support the show

“Becoming other people” for a living, as Kerry Washington likes to describe her craft, turns out to be a revelatory lens on the high drama that is the human condition. As a “learning actor,” a kind of actor/anthropologist, she has brought elegance and moral rigor to all kinds of roles: as the uber-glamorous, tough-as-nails Olivia Pope on Scandal; as the wife of Idi Amin and the wife of Ray Charles; from Little Fires Everywhere to Django Unchained. Just after Scandal ended seven triumphant seasons, she starred on Broadway as Kendra, a jeans-clad mother in a Miami police station waiting to hear what has happened to her beloved son. Krista was in that audience, and saw how Kerry attended not just to her role on stage but to bringing a beautifully racially mixed audience to participating and reflecting together. So this conversation has been a while in coming. It is rich with grace and surprising angles of insight — on the roles we all learn to play in the stories of the lives that we are given, and the evolution that is possible in how we assume those characters and leave them behind and grow them up. This episode of On Being was produced with consideration of the ongoing SAG-AFTRA strike and with external legal guidance. In distributing this episode, we attest to our belief that no statements made involve promotion of struck work in violation of the SAG-AFTRA Strike Order.Kerry Washington is the author of a new memoir, Thicker Than Water, and founder of the production company Simpson Street. Her many credits include the television series Little Fires Everywhere, the Broadway play — and Netflix film — American Son, and the film Django Unchained. She starred as Olivia Pope on seven seasons of the hit TV series Scandal. Find the transcript for this show at onbeing.org.______Sign up for The Pause — a Saturday morning companion to the podcast season.

In 1972, in the middle of the Cold War, the Soviet military sent a team of all-stars to Kampala to compete in three goodwill basketball games against Uganda's top players. But the Soviets, who were hoping to curry favor with the leader of the new regime, Idi Amin, didn't know that the Ugandan national team was being coached by an undercover American CIA operative named Jay Mullen. Sent to Uganda earlier that year to spy on the Soviets, the well-meaning history teacher from Oregon ends up courtside with one of the most notorious dictators in history. Reporter Shaun Raviv brings us close to the story in The Real Jay Mullen.

For this special bonus episode, Noiser writer Duncan Barrett sat down for a chat with Witold Szabłowski, author of How to Feed a Dictator: Saddam Hussein, Idi Amin, Enver Hoxha, Fidel Castro and Pol Pot Through the Eyes of Their Cooks. The role of personal chef to a dictator is a fascinating one. It's an extremely intimate relationship. These cooks have literally nourished tyrants. They've satisfied their culinary cravings, altered their moods for better and worse, and even influenced their policies. So what can they tell us about dictators' appetites? Real Dictators will return soon for Season 5. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

This week, we look at a man who never met a fight that he didn't like. He fought his way from the projects, to college, where he did a strange combination of extracurricular activities. He was the most feared man in the ABA, regularly punching out both opponents & teammates. His time in the NBA was cut short by his violent nature, so he went to Uganda to hang out with the dictator, Idi Amin... and was never heard from again. Or, did he die in Jonestown, with his aunt? Or, is he still alive somewhere, hiding from his problems?
