At first glance, Joseph seems like any other U.S. college student. But very soon he reveals that very few people know the full story of his life. Such begins Joseph's journey back to West Africa to face the horrors of his past for the first time. A survivor of the civil wars in Sierra Leone and Liberia, he retraces his experiences as a child prisoner and as witness to child soldiers, all the while coping with the loss of his father and grandmother. But ultimately, Joseph's story is one of immense resilience and hope. Throughout, we learn how he healed through education and is dedicating his life to providing opportunities for children and rebuilding the country he once saw destroyed.
