Solidarity Uganda: Rural Ugandans resist land grabbing and US-backed dictatorship

I spoke to Phil Wilmot, an American-born activist who now lives in rural Uganda. Land grabbing is one of the manifestations of dictatorship in northern Uganda. In 2012, we started Solidarity Uganda to resist evictions and land grabs.
