Uganda: The Power Of Nudity

From All Africa:

“Just after Matheniko MP, Abura Piriir threatened to strip naked in the House when the Land Bill is passed, the shall-strip-naked-bug now seems to have caught the women.

Addressing a press conference at Parliament on Tuesday, Pader Woman MP Judith Franca Akello threatened to mobilise Acholi women to demonstrate half-naked if the Government does not protect them from Karimojong cattle rustlers. “In Acholi culture, if a woman gets angry and exposes her breasts, it is a curse and spells doom,” she threatened.”

Sounds like an effective organizing tactic to me.
