David Kato Kisule (c. 1964 – 26 January 2011) was a Ugandan teacher and LGBT rights activist considered a father of Uganda's gay rights movement and described as "Uganda's first openly gay man."  He served as an advocacy officer for Sexual Minorities Uganda (SMUG). Kato was murdered in 2011 allegedly by a male sex worker shortly after winning a lawsuit against a magazine that had published his name and photograph identifying him as gay and calling for him to be executed.
