As my new report, Movement Behind Uganda's "Kill the Gays" Bill Organizing in Newark begins,

Street by street, block by block, organized by city ward, PrayforNewark's squads of church members are walking their city, praying for residents and businesses... its leaders claim their effort now fields enough volunteers to pray for almost every street in the New Jersey city... the effort is directly tied to an international movement that, as detailed in my new video documentary Transforming Uganda, played a significant role in organizing and inspiring Ugandan politicians who have backed the internationally notorious "kill the gays" bill, the Anti-Homosexuality Bill currently before Uganda's parliament.
