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.
