Our Kind of People: A Continent's Burden, a Country's Hope

Iweala embarks on a remarkable journey through his native Nigeria, meeting individuals and communities that are struggling daily to understand both the impact and meaning of HIV/AIDS. He speaks with people from all walks of life—the ill and the healthy, doctors, nurses, truck drivers, sex workers, shopkeepers, students, parents, and children. Their testimonies are uplifting, alarming, humorous, surprising, and always unflinchingly candid.
