If you lost all the members of your family to war, do you think you could ever pick up your life again? And how would you do that? In this week's Speak UP!, Rogers Bishop, a young man from northern Uganda who lost seven members of his family in the conflict caused by Joseph Kony's LRA rebel movement, tells his story. And he joins a panel of other young people who share their insights on how the youth of Uganda can move on. Speak UP! is an audio show in which young Africans discuss thorny social issues without pulling any punches. It is created by a selection of young hosts and producers in Zimbabwe, South Sudan, Rwanda, Nigeria and Kenya, working in partnership with local media organizations and RNW. Each edition of Speak UP! provides YOU with a chance to express yourself - because everybody wants to be heard.
