Controversial Documentary Exposes Tragic Consequences of Missionary's Actions in Uganda
HBO's three-part documentary "Savior Complex" examines the controversial case of Renee Bach, who started a charity in Uganda and saved lives but also performed medical procedures for which she was not qualified, resulting in the deaths of over a hundred children. The documentary explores the complexities of colonialism, privilege, and activism, refusing to provide easy answers. It also delves into the flaws of No White Saviors, an organization that criticizes Bach but has its own problematic practices. "Savior Complex" raises important questions about the dangers of righteous privilege and the responsibilities of those involved in charitable work.
