Invisible is a Kenyan story made up of many tales. Although the issue of sexual orientation and gender identity is a very controversial topic in Kenya, the queer community has recently struggled to make itself more visible. Kenyan activists vocally campaign against discrimination and for the respect of the dignity of lesbians, gays, bisexuals, transsexuals and intersex individuals.
As a journalist and activist, Kevin Mwachiro has taken on the task of collecting stories from this community. Covering young to old Kenyans and city dwellers to rural ones, Mwachiro has transcribed the accounts of men and women who have chosen to remain true to themselves despite the many odds that they have faced. Invisible is an exploration of their respective journeys.
Invisible is about telling the story of being gay in Kenya. These stories will take you from the outback of northern Kenya, to the coast, to the western part of the country. But more so, these are stories about the gay guy or girl on Moi Avenue, the one sitting next to you in the matatu, at school, at work, in your neighbourhood or at the dinner table. Invisible is also about that first kiss, finding love and finding oneself.
