How does the world view Uganda these days?

Admittedly I'm by and large and ignorant muzungu, but there's no denying Uganda's contribution to memes.

But aside from that, I've also recently became a Patron of Wakaliwood, because I see true talent in Isaac Nabwane as a film director and his staff. Seriously tho, if you haven't seen Wakaliwood films, check them out.

I also remember meeting a girl from Uganda when I lived in Japan. She was cool af. Wish we could have gotten to hang out more.

I know Uganda is a landlocked country in east Africa but that’s about it... I’m pretty ignorant to cultural differences etc between African countries. 

Hopefully I'm going to be visiting Uganda some day

Deeeepaaaa!  (o(

The pastor waving around a banana while giving hate speeches didn't make me take him more seriously

ogamba chee means what's up in lugandan

I was once in a band that never got off the ground that may have been called Martyred in Uganda.

this is my africa music folder, no uganda though...

I had some really good coffee beans from Uganda. That is the extent of my knowledge.

I can confirm Uganda is very based.

beat me to it.

I think Swahili sounds really nice. Has a nice rhythm to it and is one of the few languages that have the same R sound as English.

I clicked on this thread to post this exactly, but apparently I already had that covered 4 months ago.  Also, I already burgered that Ugandan Pasta alphabet vid post, but I have no recollection of watching it previously.  Amnesia's a bitch.

I know very little about Uganda, the african nations in general. They need better hype crews on tik tok.

You ever heard Beijingers talk? Sounds like "harharharharhar". Swahili is positively Middle English in comparison.

The best (and only) band from uganda I have seen was Otim Alpha and his band at last years Supernormal Festival and they slayed.  They even have a boiler room set (he's the singer)
