Together, they delve into the profound role of music and art as forms of resistance against systemic oppression, particularly from the perspective of femme and queer artists.
As Uganda faces one of the world's harshest anti-LGBTQ laws, Tayo reflects on their artistic journey, including a series of club nights that opened up spaces for the community.
