If this woman would have done this to children in the states, she would be in prison.
No, she'd be a hero to the Christian fascist right, as well as Trump supporters, Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, and the entire alt-right FreeDumb QAnon social media complex. They'd start a Go Fund Me / Give Send Go campaign and find a right-wing judge to try her case. She'd likely get off.
Facts 😢
Its Uganda. Really, anything goes there if a foreign NGO is bringing in money in some way. They were happy with her until they weren't any longer.
Are you certain? They have child labor and so many problems in the states and those problems are getting worse!
100% is a typo, correct answer is 1,000% and that's my final answer
Intrigued to see how HBO covers this because this story isn't that grey, she had no medical training, administered her google search earned medical training on at risk children, and that intervention killed them. Will be severely disappointed if it tries to instill any level of sympathy towards someone this psychopathically delusional because the only reason she's not in jail is because she's American and this happened in a different country.
And she's religious. I was raised in an extremist evangelical community, with siblings who were "missionaries" and the exponential multiplies of her being a white American christian woman all amount to a deference of authorities as to what the reality is of their doings in other countries.
Why is she not in jail?
@@melhudson1712reasons listed above: blonde, white, christian and american otherwise known as the Karen quadfecta.
It's called 'Savior Complex'... I doubt it's going to be a sympathetic portrayal.
American, and also, don’t forget: pretty, blond, and of course, a white woman.
The fact that she’s doing this documentary and not imprisoned for her actions… she contributed to the death of 105 children. I hope the funds from the series go to those she hurt due to her negligence
Many more would have died if it wasnt for her.
@@u1es you can keep that notion
But is there evidence to support those allegations? You don’t have to prove innocence in a court of law; you do have to prove guilt.
105 children?
She never killed children or do surgery on them. These children were severely malnourished and she gave them iv drips etc. Things that are taught in courses. Some of these children were about to die and died in her care. Some people blamed her for the deaths but she didn't do anything wrong. She wast cleared by Uganda officials. They even proved that some people were trying to blackmail her for money.
So sick of people blaming it on the colour of her skin. Does anyone ever do actual non bias research anymore?
"Let he who has never sinned be the first to pick a stone...and throw it at Renee" 😆 That got me.
IKR? That was savage- not looking forward to finding out what Renee did to her child (assuming she lost a child of her own due to Renee's incompetence).
@@triggerbunnyPerhaps her child died but doesn’t it sound like she is still defending Renee?
The Bible has nothing to do with this, it's called common sense
@@otterdonnelly9959 That was my understanding too - the saying means that no one is perfect, so no one can judge, and she's saying "only someone who's perfect and who has never messed up can judge/come for Renee"
@@triggerbunnyit sounds like she's defending renee actually
What Renee did was abhorrent. There is no excuse. It was unethical, self-serving, and reckless. She is responsible for over 100 child deaths. It’s horrific. If she had done what she did in the US, then she would be behind bars. I truly cannot believe that instead of being arrested she is getting a docuseries. This is shameful and it is insulting to all the families she took advantage of and to the children endangered and killed.
That's awful. This is the first I'm hearing of this. Hopefully the docu sends the message to give the justice these children and their families deserve. No medical training and poking kids with needles it's just nuts. How did they die? Is she some Munchausen case or what?
@Chris-zd7gw You don’t think it’s a coincidence that every child she provided medical care to aka experimented on, died??
And do you know why they died ofr do you know how many she saved???
Why do you assume the docuseries makes Renee out to be a hero? Just from this trailer, it's pretty clear that it's a critical look at what she did. She's not "getting a docuseries". A docuseries was made about her actions. Those things are not the same.
Most childrens deaths in the US occur in hospitals under the care of doctors. Most of those children die from diarrhea, pneumonia or malaria. Do you know how many children die every year in US hospitals under the care of doctors? It's in the thousands.
This charity was a business. There are videos of former members of the charity speaking about how they profited from donations, pretended to help when they had no expertise or experience in medicine, construction & education and that many of the children were used as props to make videos to influence more ppl to donate. I am surprised she even agreed to do this and expose herself further.
You think the people working for charities WORK for free? 😂🤣
@@bnwo spending the money on lavish vacations is part of the salary I suppose. Former members have videos talking about this, it's a Google away
Probably for more exposure that leads to more scams

Don't ruin this hate fest with facts. It's all this target demographic has to live for @@westyboi1845
“I feel like I’ve taken the hit for every white person in Uganda” yiiiikes that gives me all the answers to her guilt I need
Malnourished children with no available doctors needed help. She provided them with help. She only gave them iv and injections. Things taught from courses. Some children died in her care but it wasn't from her directly. They were extremely malnourished and sick. She saved ALOT of lives. This narrative of her killing children through incompetence is bs. All these people calling her a white witch haven't read the records
She killed HUNDREDS.
Your people killed BILLIONS in Africa all under the guise of missionary work.
The same goes for king leopold of Belgium 🇧🇪. Yeah, he was a missionary too.
Note to self:
Help starving black kids = bad
Help starving white kids = good
Exactly, I cringed
And adopted a black child she is raising on the south understanding the challenges
Listen, there are millions of Americans, including kids that need help. Secondly the audacity to go treat people ESPECIALLY children when you have zero degree whatsoever. How is that even allowed or legal?
@bbabbich3467But if you have no training, you’re only gonna make a bad situation even worse, no matter where your heart’s at
@bbabbich3467tell us your du MB without telling us ……,you act like he was serving meals at a soup kitchen 🙄🙄🙄 some people are born Stu pid
@@catmejia6109your comment makes no sense
@@catmejia6109 your comment is incoherent. You can edit for clarity.
i agreee with you on the second point, but i disagree on the first. just because there are people in need of help in your country, it doesnt mean you morally cannot go to other country to provide help. Your first point indicates that Doctors Without Borders are immoral.
She has no medical experience. Doesn’t even use the donation money to hire doctors is intriguing.
said the same thing to myself
This may be the only logical post I've seen on this video. Yes it appears that funds need to be generated and earmarked to hire trained doctors, and better equipment as well.
She literally did have medical staff, stop making stuff up maybe?
Do you want to help or do you want to feel good about yourself?
Normally, when you want to help, you seek the proper ways to do it. But if you want to feel good about yourself, you will do anything to get that instant gratification.
You hit the nail on the head!!
“Do you think Renee is a murderer?”
That isn’t a good question it’s an easy one. Yes she is, PERIOD!!! The intention is irrelevant what matters is the result.

@@westyboi1845you forgot that they said she had no medical training, stop defending a killer
@@michael-k. But she did do courses to give IV's?? The children died cause they were on the brink of death. The "killer" theory happened cause she settled on the civil suit. Read the transcripts of the civil suit and exactly what happened. She would of won but stress got the better of her. Only 2 parents brought on a civil suit cause the others knew the circumstances. They were 50/50 to death. Many, many more would of died without her care. She's being crucified for trying to save lives
Right. Straight up a serial killer
@@westyboi1845were you there when she was treating the children? Stop acting like you saw this with your eyes to be saying the children were “on the brink of death”. She literally prevented some children from going to hospitals so she could “treat them”.
Doesn't matter what her intent was- if she caused a life to end by pure ignorance...still manslaughter.
Exactly I'm struggling to see the issue here if kids died from her care
@@Shyknit I literally had never heard of this woman until I watched this trailer & that was my take away. I would have to guess that it's complications due to international laws mostly.
That logic would apply to every politician, corporate CEO, and cop in the world.
@@squatch545 it applies to any human being. That being said, corruption of those you mentioned to keep them from ever seeing the consequences of their actions is a whole other problem..lol
She didn't cause anyone to die. The local hospital had a higher death rate. And she was investigated by the Uganda Medical and Dental Practitioners Council and found to have done nothing wrong. She was helping severely ill children who were starving to death. And if she hadn't been there they would have just died in the streets.
The fact that HBO is interviewing her at all and giving her a platform to spew lies when it is well known she had no medical training or licensing for her facility, that is just plain wrong. She should be locked up!
I dont understand what you're saying ?
@@DaveRedsky Renee Bach, the subject of the documentary, shouldn’t be getting screen time and getting interviewed at all. She hasn’t faced any consequences for what she did, and now this is just an opportunity for her to lie about what she was doing.
Yet they won't have the Sound Of Freedom on MAX.
@@hollyzimmerman1543 neither any documentaries of any seriel killers. And yet people consume them
@@S.T_the_Trini why would Max have sound of freedom to stream? They don't own sound of freedom 🤦♂️🤡🤦♂️
A 19 year old cannot drink in the USA but can practice medicine in Uganda!?!?! If HBO was looking for a story to tell, then tell the stories of her victims and their familes and how she fled Uganda. Shame on HBO
Shame on HBO for what?
@@DaveRedsky HBO is the only sharing her story, helping her portray herself as a victim.
@@moralay79 it's a documentary. Do you know how documentaries work 🙃🤡🤣🤦♂️
shame on ugandans and africans for worshipping whites, and anyone not black, and allowing them to come to their lands and do whatever they want. imo, that's the shame. if they were discerning, protective of their children, and didn't elevate whites, this likely wouldn't not have happened. all you have to do is get her information and make some calls to get her background.
just watched it- they did like thats most of the 3rd episode
She KILLED kids due her negligence. So WHY is she being treated like a victim?? Did she ever apologize to the families? Did she serve time? I hope this "documentary" bombs or that it becomes so popular, people will call for real justice to take place.
Hope a documentary bombs ?
So did she make those children malnourished to the point of death? How did those kids get to that point in the first place? This is the first I'm hearing of this story.
@@cicicorleono she did not make those children malnourished, she provided “medical attention” (experiments) on them despite having no proper education.
@@SonderDAzeX did you watch the documentary?
@@cicicorleo These childern where sick and this cow shows up pretending to be a doctor and killed children. Then ran back to the states when she started to get in trouble. The unitedStates refused to send her back when Uganda requested she be sent back to face justice in the courts.
SHE NEEDS TO BE IN JAIL. PERIOD!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is disgusting. Clearly Renee's reputation matters more than the lives she took from hundreds of children. She's a serial killer who targeted a marginalized group just like Dahmer
100%. Children as well. This impending extinction can't come fast enough.
As a Ugandan, I'm hearing about this for the first time. why doesn't such news get to the whole country. thank God for this trailer 🙏
Her story has been around for a while. Even some parents sued her though I don’t know how it ended. America basically protects its citizens, even when, like in her case, we’re talking about horrific crimes. It’s sad that our country’s big serial killer is at large
Her story went viral years ago in Uganda
Oh she's profiting from this documentary after her evil deeds. This is not something to be thankful for.
Are there really malnourished babies to the point of death there?
@@cicicorleo malnourished? Yes, very many but none is dying. That would be starvation. She’s stands out cos she led to the death of so many kids but she’s not alone. Many white people come here in the name of helping but end up abusing the communities in which they operate. There are many white men accused of sexually abusing young gals and boys that they purport to help with school fees and some other support
The fact that that devil is interviewed from the comfort of her living room instead of behind bars tells you enough, and the fact that those 105 children’s and their families suffering and trauma is commodified as entertainment whilst that witch is elevated into a place of innocence and good will in the eyes of the public is disgusting and I hate it.
OMG, I don't know where to start.
She never killed children or do surgery on them. These children were severely malnourished and she gave them iv drips etc. Things that are taught in courses. Some of these children were about to die and died in her care. She saved heaps of kids from dying. They have no medical professionals available. She was there on my hope. Some people blamed her for the deaths but she didn't do anything wrong. She was cleared by Uganda officials. They even proved that some people were trying to blackmail her for money.
Does anyone ever do actual non bias research anymore?
@@westyboi1845at the end of the day she’s not a real doctor and she’s playing with their lives because she doesn’t know what she’s doing
This is the society we live in. 2050 will be the start of something new as mother nature continues her cleanse.
Whites need to stay out of the dark continent in general. And blacks should stay out of Europe
@@miram2053what are you referring to? I’m seeing your comments about upcoming extinction etc.
Ignorance combined with piety is the most deadly combination in history. Well meaning but uninformed and dogmatically thinking individuals cause exponentially more pain and death than malicious psychopaths.
She is not well meaning nor ignorant nor uninformed. She INTENTIONALLY CHOSE to perform surgeries on children while having nothing more than a high school degree. That is pathological. She IS a malicious psychopathic criminal.
See re Doctor ("Doctor"?) Joseph Ladapo in Floriduh.
This goes beyond ignorance if you want to help and you don't know how you ask for guidance. Usually from the same people you're trying to help. This lady just wanted to feel good about herself.
This comment is uninformed and dogmatic.

The gull! She should be interviewing from under the jail! Im livid that HBO even gave her this platform.
and they probably paid her more than the paltry amount she paid to the 2 mothers in the series.Less than $20,000 for the loss of their 2 children.
HBO has no right to portray her as a person who wanted to help. It is outragous.
You watched it already? Because I did not get that from the trailer.
@@jeffersoncamargo873she isn’t in prison! That’s all that needs to be seen.
EXACTLY!
Well blame the Africans for allowing this to happen…
HBO isn't doing Ugandans justice. She should also be in prison.
HBO why are you doing this? Giving her a platform and portrait her as a victim? She should in jail! Shame on you!
She. Had. No. Medical. Training.
Who cares about her intentions? HBO are you serious with this??? Just imagine this had happened in the US, she’ll be in prison right now. So sad.
You fail to realize the HBOs desire to spread hate towards white people is greater than its love for the people that died
How is she not in international jail?
This was such a good documentary. I recommend everyone to watch it.
What still perplexes me is that i dont understand how someone can go to another country and essentially provide medical care when SHE HAS NO TRAINING! she literally only probably had highschool level biology! Thats insane to me! So many qualified medical immigrants come to the US and Canada and literally cant even work as a doctor because the US/Canada do not accept their qualification! How can this happen in Uganda is beyond understanding! Even though she settled for a mere 9000 USD, I hope karma gets her.
There is only 1 question: was she licensed to do any of the medical interventions she performed resulting in death? If the answer is no, then we have our answer. What is appalling is she shows no remorse and is veiled under religion and righteousness. She deserves to be punished under a court of law and serve time. I read she was penalized a mere $8,000. There was NO JUSTICE.
No
Tbf that one family she paid 8.000. The family thanked her..
The kid was about to die. She help save that one babys life..
The other jealous white woman who worked with her. Convinced the family to sue. Then Kelsey was kicked out her group for stealing. The place and charity was shut down. So none of the poor babys got help.. All jealous white woman with god complexes. Everybody after money!! And the kids last clinc with the government shut down. So the kids and familys lost out..
Yes
Man, if only you could go to a developing nation and see that a majority of medical care is done by people who aren't trained. And she did nothing that resulted in death. The mothers having children then starving them is what resulted in their deaths.
@@Rachel......... I have and I am a licensed medical professional that believes in practicing within the scope of my practice bound by moral and ethical code. I haven't seen what you are claiming, BUT if that is your experience, why would you think death wouldn't happen? And why are you passing blame on the innocent people trusting those people practicing outside of their scope? Bach (no medical background) treated children, resulting in the deaths of 105 children on the charity's watch. Only 2 mothers sued. Try to stay focused on the facts at hand.
How dare you treat children with no medical experience, resulting in their death. She’s an animal who needs to be locked up. The government of Uganda should’ve locked her up
Pretty good program worth a watch. In a nutshell, child rehabilitation center that gives food and medicine to children closes and a new coffee shop is built!
If she really cared about those children she should have learned how to be an actual doctor !!
Didn't want to put in the effort
She was homeschooled 😂 and googled and watch RUclips ! That was enough for her to treat kids - she honestly believes that’s okay - which proves she isn’t a true believer in being honest and walking with Jesus - 1 accidental death should have been enough to just find raise and feed the other kids !!!
she’s a serial killer and you’re giving her a platform?????
she deserves to be in prison, not have a documentary painting her out as some white knight. disgusting.
the angry "you know whos" have arrived...
It dosen't seem like they are saying she did good from this trailer.
I have to be honest, I don't think the nice HBO documentary people were entirely truthful with her about what this show would be about
@@carlycrays2831 I think like everything else this woman has done, she heard what she wanted to hear and engaged in some magical thinking in order to assume that she would come off well
@@tomacker5363 Yeah, the delusion is real.
I'm a former evangelical, and in evangelical Christianity there's this idea that God will call unqualified people to save (mostly Black) kids from poverty, starvation, and/or trafficking. If you say, "But I don't know how to ___," they'll respond, "Well, Moses had a speech impediment, and God still used him," or some other example from the Bible.
The result is a lot of well-meaning white people unintentionally doing lots and lots and lots of harm.
I mean, Moses was also a professional Shepard and had a high level of education at the time
@@carlycrays2831 I'm just repeating what I heard evangelicals say.
@@tmamone83 I get you. I just mean that, like, a lot of people in the Bible were highly regarded professionals in their own way. They weren't just doing things
@@carlycrays2831 "a lot of people in the Bible were highly regarded professionals in their own way."...You type that as if it were historical fact. Do you believe the Bible is telling a story that is inspired by God and ALL true, or just parts of it? The reason I ask is because the Bible teaches its followers to accept immoral actions as morally acceptable without ever teaching them otherwise, and I want to understand if YOU cherry-pick from the book in order to stay morally grounded, or if you accept the immoral teachings too...
@@GuessWhoAsks I say that because while I don't think the Bible is literal, I think you can use real historical context to figure out the education level and professional attitude of the characters and historical figures. I also think that this common Christian story that these people were all humble and of the salt of rhe earth really is just pushing a narrative which feeds into their missionary plots and prosperity gospel.
She’s a mass murderer and not only got away with it but got her own documentary painting her out to be this misunderstood heroine are we shocked?
I can only assume they plan on exposing her like they did the guy from BS HIGH. I hope that’s the plan because you can’t excuse or explain away her actions
Hopefully. I have little hope that they'll be consistent in their approach. White murderers aren't held accountable to the same degree as poc who commit lesser non violent crimes.
It's called WHITE SAVIOR COMPLEX, don't water it down by given it a different title HBO
@bbabbich3467 I go to Central America for 1 month every year and help people in need. You? Payaso de feria.
TBH my friend did a saviour complex trip - and there were black and asian british people in the group among white people. They did it to help but also get to travel.
@bbabbich3467please stop talking
Yep. All the white people on twitter pretending to like all those dark skinned female models and actresses are so annoying..
That’s isn’t accurate or relevant to this vid. And for the record it’s fine for white women to like black actresses and models.
This is what evil truly looks like
A lot of lessons to be learned from this Documentary.
She needs to be in jail, not in a documentary
I love how everyone just ignores the fact that 10-15% of kids in the local hospitals died as well.
Exactly!!! Even in the US where everyone is trained for years and years, medical malpractice is the third leading cause of death.
that doesn't automatically mean medical professionals in the local hospitals were administrating wrong medicine or not checking vitals or not checking blood type, arriving late could also be a reason
but the documentary showed that Renee gave blood transfusion with checking blood type, she also didn't check vitals and was telling her actual medical staff which medicine to give to kids
This blows my mind that HBO made a documentary on this monster
There's a podcast about this called The Missionary. It's a great listen in addition to this.
There's definitely a conversation to be had about the value and intent behind missionary work, but what Renee did was pretty cut and dried medical malpractice.
Nah. Missionary work is 100% white supremacist neocolonialism. No defense exists.
Thank you, I will be listening to the podcast.
Thank you, I'll definitely search this podcast and listen for more context
Not medical malpractice. Manslaughter. It would only be medical malpractice if she was a licensed medical practitioner.
Really Eleanor? I listened to the same podcast (brilliant and we'll researched BTW) and I don't see the cut and dry part at all.
"With or without religion, good people can behave well and bad people can do evil; but for good people to do evil - that takes religion.”
― Steven Weinberg
Lol
dumb
Makes me think of Ashli Babbitt. I'm sure in her head, God told her to overturn the election for Trump/Jesus, but got herself deleted in the middle of a coup instead.
I would add, that for good people to do evil it takes *ideology*....doesn't have to be religion...
@@rabd3721 just when i thought the Steven Weinberg quote was dumb…. geez
There’s no way she agreed to this knowing the context
@bbabbich3467 so you're also insane?
If her “trying” results in needless deaths then she should never have tried at all. Just because someone is trying to do something, doesn’t mean that it’s a good thing. You really need to expand your mind.
@bbabbich3467 stop it and shut up. if she wanted to help she would go to medical school and then go help them
@bbabbich3467When her actions result in deaths, “at least she tried”’is not a legitimate defense
@@KennyEverything That logic would apply to every politician, corporate CEO, and cop, in the world.
Its sad how there is room to debate, if she did wrong. whereas there are 108 families that would never be the same.The few who got 'justice ' was a slap on the wrist as compesation and now, HBO out here profiting over those dead african children 💔 😢 when does it end??
Charity work often goes from a mission to provide relief or assistance to those needing help, to a mission that seeks to financially enrich the lives of those providing it. Or is that sometimes the entire point?
Selling and investing is the best way to make money fast, so you dont look to charity to make money fast. You can actually donate or get trucks & a team to help people on the side after youve made all your money in business.
Love all the quick to outrage judges, juries and executioners in these comments who haven't even seen the documentary. Having actually seen it myself, in my opinion this documentary was surprisingly fair and balanced in its coverage of all sides to the story. The most interesting and thoughtful personality to me was the attorney representing and seeking justice for the Ugandan mothers who had lost their children. The world could do with more people like her.
Loved her! I actually thought the documentary did a fair job and telling the story.
yeah man, the people commented couldnt be more wrong about this story. She saved over 800 kids and lost 105. She had a lower mortality rate than the local hospitals. The lawyer only found 2 mothers that wanted to seek legal action and the third refused and instead insisted that renee was wonderful and was greatful for her help. Without renee, these kids would have had literally no one to help them because they were already released by the hospitals due to lack of resources. Renee paid for their treatment.
she may have made some mistakes, but the good she has done drastically outweighs any potential harm she has done.
Can’t wait until the “documentary” tells us the intention is all that really matters
It's a documentary
I think sometimes you just have to ask yourself 2 simple questions:
1. “Would I legally be allowed to do this in America without qualifications?"
2. “Are there rules/regulations/laws/governing bodies that would prevent me from doing this in America without qualifications?.
Christianity was in Africa before it was in Europe. I have never understood the need to do mission work in Africa when the harvest is plenty but labourers are few here in the west.
52% of British people and 31% of American's don't go to church every Sunday, meanwhile 84% of Ugandans are Christians, and there are more christians in Africa than any other continent (631 million to be exact.).
I do not understand the reasoning of leaving America - which has experienced a 15% drop in Christianity in the past 10 years (down to 63%) - to preach to the converted.
Platforming this negligent murderer is so irresponsible. Unreal.
Ive seen comments saying that the rate of death for her organization was 11% vs the rate of 40% for that region. Folks, that comparison is illogical. A proper comparison would be between her organization and an organization with trained medical staff - because that was what the people of this region thought they were getting and should have received. Suggesting that people of the region should just be happy with the faulty dangerous help they got because without that "help" it would have been worse is unacceptable.
Yes, but what you don't seem to want to accept is that she is only there because there is no alternative facility with trained medical staff, available to these people locally, sufficient to care for all of them. A proper comparison would be the reality of the situation which is with her, 11% death. Without her, 40%. Can you guess which # is larger? Any parent can choose to take their child to her, or not, to instead go somewhere else. I am highly in favor of their being a better alternative in both training and facility quality. Until then, you work with what you have.
I genuinely don't understand your reasoning. Why is it "unacceptable" to point out that without her, the people of the region would have had worse help if they were lucky enough to get any at all? To me, that makes all the difference.
@@stinkycheese804 Your argument that "well it could have been worse" is heartless in the face of knowing it could and should have been better. People acting like she had no choice and did the best she could. No, she did not. You know who had no other choices? The people who went to her. It was her or death. She gambled with their lives rather than make a good solid choice to provide proper care.
@@Mine4062 My reasoning is this...if a medical facility exists, then its standard of care should be compared to other medical facilities. To compare it to not having a medical facility at all is an error.
People are acting like the choices wefe her and her organization as it was....or nothing at all. And thats not correct. The real choices were her and her organization as it was OR her and her organization with proper medical training.
@@Yes-iu3kr Okay fair enough. But then by that logic, their choices were her with her 11% mortality rate or the "properly trained" medical facilities with their 40%?
She’s a murderer. If you did this in the US, you’d be in jail for life if not put to death. As a nurse, this makes me sick.
Ok, you are trained. Why dont you give up your high paying job and go take care of kids in Uganda since she is not there anymore....oh ya because you actually dont care about starving uganda children. Just about writing angry comments online.
Now I'm in a precarious position being half and half. My dad is white my mother was Indigenous now there is me. Our world is filled with people who think that their good outweighs anything else and they are compelled to force that life into us. I know colonialism, my parents would fight about in throughout my life and it's caused a lot of resentment withing myself... we can't let bygones be when people like this woman are allowed to exist without being monitored or policed like the rest of the non-white world has to....
I wish you the best in life, fellow halfsie. People like us tend to have the weight of the world on our shoulders.
Type1, 1st, and foremost, you're a human being who can form an opinion of what is right and wrong. Skin color has nothing to do with it. Form your opinion with your beautiful brain.
Malnourished children with no available doctors needed help. She provided them with help. She only gave them iv and injections. Things taught from courses. Some children died in her care but it wasn't from her directly. They were extremely malnourished and sick. She saved ALOT of lives. This narrative of her killing children through incompetence is bs. All these people calling her a white witch haven't read the records
@@renellwhite9315 Do you mean to say you believe Type is focusing too much on color somehow? In that case, I'm confused because I don't see it at all.
Why make it about you when 105 children were killed.
This will be an interesting watch. My uncle was a medical missionary during idi Amins day. He would see people being attacked by machetes in front of his clinic. He was trained though
Why are they trying to portray this like it's a debatable topic she literally operated on children without a medical license if this happened anywhere else with children of a different race she would be in prison by now
lol, which operation?
How does extradition work in USA and Uganda? When is the trial, and when will she be held accountable?
Also, how does see sleep at night?
She settled out of court and got away with it
@@lamb9770 whoa 😳

She saved the lives of like 800 kids. Id sleep pretty well after that.
@@Rachel......... hah! Prove it!
For all those who are saying atleast she tried to help or tried to do something.. just imagine a situation where one of your own kids or if you don't have kids your loved ones has fallen unconscious in a public place and may need a CPR remember I said may need a CPR not necessary and no one is helping but someone comes up to help and renders a CPR without doing a proper check and performs it incorrectly leading to rupture of lungs and death.. now is the person a saviour or murderer
bad example. they would be considered neither. they'd be a samaritan and protected regardless of the outcome
At least she "did her own research" 🙂
Osea dices que si una persona le da un infarto es mejor dejarlo morir que darle rcp?
Kinda a bad example, more like imagine someone offers to let your kids go to a free daycare because you cant afford it and all your kids die of easily avoidable mistakes and negligence. Do you just say, it was a mistake? Or do you question why they were operating a place that ignored all the warning signs over and over again for about a hundred children?
That is not the same. One is a passerby ignorantly trying to help. Renee proclaims and puts herself in a position and profits
I truly hope this isn’t a redemption story for Renee. What is this trailer?
Am stunned that she is not behind bars yet the actual heckkkk😮
It seems like she’s guilty af.. how was she never charged??! I don’t understand.. if she did that in America she would be in prison..
Different laws and governments, one lawyer sued her for the death of two kids and more followed. But the issue is that she's in the US
Renee did what most of us will never think of doing and that was helping those helpless malnourished children and instead of being appreciated she is being judged. But as the Bible says in Math 5:10 Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness for theirs is the Kingdom of heaven. Renee my friend and sister the is with He says I will never leave you nor forsake you. Stand yo ground and continue helping those that He places in yo wake. We are thankful for the kind works you did for the parents of Eastern Uganda. Stay blessed my sister
I am very confused by all the comments about how she is portrayed as a victim. This is a documentary that appears to investigate her wrongdoing. Just because a perpetrator is interviewed doesn't mean she's portrayed as a victim. My God, people. Let's use our brain and not automatically listen to the twitter chatter. Wait for the documentary to actually air and then make your judgements.
exactly! HBO did not make her look like a savior....i knew nothing about this story and did not walk away from it thinking Renee was anything more than a narcissist with a god complex.
I found the other gal who started No White Saviors to be a horrible person throughout the series and, in the end, we found out she was nothing more than another narcissist bent on ruining lives for her own reasons that had nothing to with the goals of the group...willing to make up lies to illustrate she knows better than us.
Is she being paid for this documentary? If yes HBO should be ashamed for glorifying a killer
She is a murderer and got away with killing all those kids through sheer narcissism. The fact that she refuses to accept that what she did killed those kids further proves her narcissism. Im sure her God will be super impressed with all the child killing when she eventually goes to meet him
I can smell the covert narcissism from 5 miles away!
She has the same dead-soulless-stare as Elizabeth Holmes and Bryan Kohberger.
Sure, the whole religious aspect of it was delusional, but she went there to try and help. She helped waaay more than she hurt. So many that criticize her have never been in her shoes and live in their own selfish little worlds.
Why not the millions of homeles people in your country?
Without outside help much of Africa would be a lot worse
@@wwbuirkle I mean without colonization, Africa would be fine
Probably b/c she knew she would not be able to the extent of what she did the US without significant pushback, or at the very least she would need to acquire all the trained professionals to deliver any medical care
because you're too good for nothing to help these people?
@@wwbuirkle they do not need help to begin with if it's not because of colonialism that still is happening
**Vengeance is mine said the Most High** 🙏 Pure wickedness and evil, 😭😭😭😭 my heart go for the family's and innocent children's.
This woman should be behind bars. HBO should not give fame to criminals.
the fact that this trailer portrays Renee as a victim is beyond immoral. HBO really lost its footing after the merger.
Religion poisons everything. - C. Hitchens
If they wanted to help African kids, they can help the African American kids here in the U.S.😅
Americans are not African.
She deadass said she EXPERIMENTED on children. That’s psychotic
As a Black Christian, I’m very interested in this “being called by God” situation. Does God know that we will make mistakes when we do His will? Yes, but at the same time, it’s such a weird trend of white Christians always being “called” to help poor Africans. A lot of people build their identity on who they can help. Some of these people can’t even evangelise to their neighbour but feel okay going to another continent. Obviously, I’m aware that people can be called and then mess up like Saul.
The same people keep making the same "mistakes" across the globe but especially in African countries. And it always ends in the harm or death of black and brown people. God sees it for what it is.
Did this trailer need to go so epic with the music ? I’d go more with a somber dramatic tone
This woman is a monster, no accountability and she willfully deceives. So scary
As a Ugandan, this woman needs to be extradited back here and dealt with accordingly.. The nerve smh
Do the Ugandan doctors who have a higher death rate in the area also need to be put in prison...or na
Let me go into a white nursery and make mistakes no debate id be under the jail.
lol at throwing a stone at Renee
Now why is HBO giving her a chance to speak..... she literally caused the death of those children
Trust me, people with a savior complex is coming all colors, even black.
They come to my country pretending to do good they're are evil 😢😢
Whoever made this documentary needs to be fired
I havent heard of this until now
That woman was out of her depth in many ways. You wouldn't do this in your own country so why do it abroad?
She should have been extradited to Uganda and faced criminal medical negligence charges.
There’s genuine Doctors and Nurses and other Allied healthcare professionals that are well experienced and qualified to assist people in those medical camps, I know people that have sacrificed everything to serve my mother continent.
One of the main reasons that causes death in children - they are brought to these professionals when it’s too late and they expect a white saviour mentality, of-course with pain of loss comes hatred to the white saviour.
I am not saying that responsibility shouldn’t be taken as some of them are just students and lack experience however, medical camps do provide a lot of help to our communities and still save lives.
Stick to your own.
It's obvious many of the people commenting have only watched the trailer/first episode and are opining only based on that. I come from a country that has needed missionary help like Uganda, and it's fascinating how I already knew the cast of characters and predicted the end before the final episode; the dichotomy between the noble-hearted and idealistic white missionary kids (the vast majority of them), the toxic ones with a savior or superiority complex AND the local critics (the No White Savior group) who don't address the actual problem and only throw rocks and profit of it. Their ending (at the end of the doc) is soooo predictable to someone like me who has known this charade for decades; they crowd-raised a coffee shop with "resource books" which does nothing to address the lack of healthcare and doesn't bother to pick up the slack of Renee's organization and the good she did do. Armchair academic wannabes, who make valid points but do nothing about it.
And the criticism that she is raising two Ugandan orphans in the US? At least she is raising two Ugandan orphans, which is WAY more than most critics ever care to do.
Renee was at best reckless and that needs to be called out, learned from and prosecuted. This is old, folks. The malpractice on Africans by untrained missionaries is much older than Renee herself. And, not but, she was also doing work that many refused to do, including the self-righteous NWS warriors who'd much rather criticize from outside instead of getting in the mud and helping the sick in their own communities. They need to stop being convenient hypocrites just as much as the missionary community needs to learn from this, clean its act and do no harm.
Greatly put. Thank you for the info
this! especially no one picking up the slack. It really frustrates me...
hello, I angrily followed this trailer and I demand the prosecution of this criminal. Even if it is by petition to restore tranquility to the souls of the various children killed. She had a demonic vocation and I remind here that the hour of God's glory has come and mother nature is already taking charge by releasing this trailer on RUclips. To God alone the glory.
Moral of story: help the people in your community.
Not really, it is to not pretend to be something you are not. If you are not a nurse, don't nurse children. If you are not a doctor, don't pretend to be one. Be honest, be open and transparent.
@@Azulakayes I agree with you on the pretending point. I don't think you can ignore the title of the movie or the testimony of the people within the trailer. She was driven to go to another continent and be their white savior. She had plenty of things she could have addressed in her backyard.
@@magicalfrijoles6766 white people getting backlash for trying to help while black people doing nothing aren't criticised.
Moral of the story: don't help.
Looks like a well made doc. Let's just watch it and reserve judgment until we do, huh?? Is that ok with you, Man??@@Azulakayes
Wrong! Moral of the story: mind your own business. Get a grip on your god complex and all the little voices in your head and educate yourself.
Ah yes. Another “Good Christian” doing evil in the name of God.
I’ve never heard of her before!
I think we all know why shes been able to get away it and its NOT that hard to figure out. IF these kids HAD BLONDE HAIR AND BLUE they would have given her the CHAIR!!!
Maybe help because you want to not because some imaginary being told you to. Use science and logic combined with compassion.
Then they wouldn't be able to help. A lot of these charities work on the basis that they send whoever to these areas, not trained people who might be able to actually do anything.
she lacks education and intelligence, which is why science and logic never crossed her mind
actually educated people are able to combine science and compassion, like Dr.Gabor Mate helping addicts, homeless people and prisoners
Is this the sequel to Sound of Freedumb?
She needs to make a visit to Cape Town South Africa.
HBO: Are you serious? So, this woman does awful things, and you allow her to center herself as the victim???
This documentary did a good job of showing both sides without bias, something those who would like to demonize her don't like at all. I'm very grateful that they didn't follow the outrage culture and actually looked at the facts and heard both sides. Too much of this "she shouldn't even be allowed a platform, shouldn't be allowed to even speak because we've already passed sentence." Typical of our culture to not even listen to people with whom you disagree. An excellent documentary.
If you did what she did in Uganda in America, practice medicine on children with no medical license and some of those American kids died, you would be serving hard time. Imagine if your neighbor started giving transfusions to the neighborhood kids with NO MEDICAL TRAINING. Now how do you feel about that?
@@wisdomcoffee But she wasn't doing it in America. She was doing it in a country with terrible medical facilities and only after trying and not even being able to get into them. Also, my neighborhood kids aren't dying from malnutrition and lack of access to medical care. Also, their parents aren't taking them to the neighbor begging him to give their children medical care. Really a poor and false analogy all around.
@@Mine4062You negating the fact that there were places she could have taken the kids to, like actual hospitals and centers that specialize in this. Because they have actual doctors and nurses and are following the rules of the country and are experienced in this.
@@Ashbrash1998 No, I'm not. That was her first course of action on multiple occasions as stated in the doc. But they were so overcrowded and short staffed that on several occasions she was unable to get admitted and get any help for the children, some of whom ended up dying as a result. Are you claiming she should have just continued trying with each child and just letting them die rather than actually doing something herself? Throw her hands up in the air and say "Well the hospitals can't take you but I'm not trained so nothing I can do for you"?
The point is there AREN'T enough of the medical facilities in that country that will drop what they are doing to save a dying child. As also stated in the series, its not like the developed world where a child dying is a big deal. Children die all the time and they just get used to it because there aren't enough "doctors and nurses who know what they are doing" to actually help everyone.
Rather than letting them die, she did something about it and saved hundreds of children's lives that otherwise would have been ignored and died. There are hundreds of children alive right now as a direct result of her action who otherwise wouldn't be. There are TWO that they were even able to conceivably bring a suit against her for (one of which she never even met) and they even failed to prove those.
Okay, so, the proceeds for a docu-mini series directed by an white American journo are going to whom? Viewership provided by a predominately white self glory hailing audience that can afford HBO; we'll inhale carbs and subscribe to major streaming networks to finger point and pat ourselves on the back for agreeing that someone we didn't know even existed is a bad person? How profoundly boring and yet immensely self sacrificial of us all. High fives, all around!
They're going to HBO just like any other show they produce. You have no point.
@@stinkycheese804 That's my point, stinky cheese.😆
But it's not a point because it's just a show, and they are in the business of producing shows. That it happens to be true or controversial, is irrelevant to the motivations in providing content for money. How else would you run a business?@@beanie1089
The fact that the death toll is over a hundred... after the first death, you should ask yourself what went wrong. This says a lot about her "good" intentions.
