Skate Aid – Slum Freedom

In the Kitintale slums of Kampala, Uganda, Mubiru Jackson watched human beings take flight on tv in a way he had never seen before. These people were skateboarding and they evoked something in Mubiru. This moment inspired a lifelong dream of bringing skateboarding – and all it can teach us about life, resilience and commitment – to Ugandan communities.
