Find Me Unafraid recounts the extraordinary journey of Kennedy Odede and Jessica Posner, two young individuals from radically different backgrounds, brought together by a shared determination to create meaningful change. Kennedy grew up in Kibera, Africa’s largest informal settlement, where he overcame extreme poverty and educated himself with whatever resources he could find. Jessica, from Denver, Colorado, met Kennedy during a university exchange program in Nairobi in 2007.
