Kabushenga’s Thoughts A Tribute To Gen. Moses Ali I first heard of Moses Ali in 1978. He was Minister of Finance. I was a primary school pupil in my 5th grade. Later in life, I got to meet him in person. At the time he was a deputy prime minister. It would be his highest

I see this has caused a bit of a storm in my DM so let me explain a little bit more. There are several accounts of treatment of Rwandan immigrants here as second class citizens. Many of them were excluded from access to property and were the victims of ethnic prejudice, especially in Nkore and greater Buganda. Only those who found creative ways to “assimilate” had better luck, but by 1980 they had to join a military struggle to try and guarantee their citizenship. Today, many still struggle to get Ugandan citizenship documents Today, we see that in the North, a society devastated by years of war finds itself alarmed by the influx of Bantu immigrants who are buying land perceivably cheaply, in part, I think, because of the economic devastation of the war. The point I am making is that xenophobia and any such prejudice is wrong. But the prejudice in South Africa comes from structural oppression rather than ideas of South African exceptionalism, as we see with Racism globally: the poverty that causes that prejudice is the same poverty that causes the immigration of its victims. That poverty is caused by entrenched systems of economic oppression that affect Africans almost uniformly. What happened to the Banyarwanda, and now the Balalo, is evidence that, like in South Africa, every oppressed society will resist outsiders if they believe they will take away what little that oppression has allowed them to retain. If you locked people in a room and told them only one could come out, they will clamor and fight as amongst each other to exit, and yet they each did not cause the other’s imprisonment. When (some) Ugandans turned on the Indians in the 1970s, was it because they hated them, or because for decades prior, the British had oppressed both of them, and the Ugandans were trying to step into the Indian position, rather than undo the oppression for both groups? Did the Indians in India and around the world, or the Rwandans impose on us retribution? What we see in South Africa, we see in everywhere, as in the case of Uganda, and we cannot sit in judgment of South Africa when we have not imposed the same judgment elsewhere, including here at home. So those (I believe few) South Africans, even in their prejudice, are my allies because we are oppressed by the same system. Hate will not help in showing them that we need to gang up against those that have put us in this position, and not each other. Africa will overcome these shackles imposed on it, but to achieve it, we must stand by each other.

“We are hate watching South Africa because they are anti immigrants etc etc….” how did we treat the Rwandans when they came here?

It worries me that Africans, many times, will not pass up an opportunity to turn on each other.

@kasujja @TioKauma Was blessed to work with Prof. Dr Vinand Natulya. His work has contributed also to the HIV response immensely! We thank these patriots for their work, and pray that we will be good for it.
