Uganda Skateboard Union (part 2 of 2)
The kids in Uganda are some of the dopest skateboarders we have ever seen. Thanks to Swiss photographer Yann Gross who gave us permission to share this short film (that he Produced) that tells the story of how Jackson Mubiru started the Uganda Skateboard Union. It has blown up over the past few years and has changed the lives of youth throughout Uganda. Luxury Goods is excited to share this incredible movement in Uganda and we will have an exclusive interview with Jackson Mubiru in our first issue. Watch these kids tear it up and if you can help in anyway their contact information is at the end of the movie. Be sure to watch Part 1 and Two 2 to get the full story of the Uganda Skateboard Union. We hope to one day be on the next plane to Kampala to check these kids out in person!
