Speech

"It was the year 2018 when I first heard about Greta Thunberg from Sweden. I did not first understand what she was doing given the fact that the word strike in Uganda is inseparable with violence. I asked my dad what school strike for climate meant and he told me that Greta was not attending class every Friday to protest against her government inaction. I asked if what she was doing was possible in Uganda and his answer was yes."
