tells the powerful, real-life stories of four individuals and groups in Africa who courageously resist extremism, injustice, and violence:

 

  • Uganda – A couple escapes from the Lord’s Resistance Army and attempts to rebuild their lives after being child soldiers.

  • Mauritania – A woman risks everything to fight modern-day slavery in a society that denies it still exists.

  • Somalia – A women’s basketball team defies religious threats and violence by continuing to play the sport they love.

  • Nigeria – A vigilante joins the fight against Boko Haram in a region terrorized by militants.

 

Through deeply personal, narrative-driven journalism, Okeowo shines a light on the resilience and quiet heroism of people who stand up against oppression and extremism. These stories are emotional, inspiring, and offer a more humanized view of some of Africa’s most complex challenges.
