Rye Barcott, a UNC alumni, lectured in the FedEx Global Center to celebrate the tenth anniversary of Carolina for Kibera, the organization he co-founded, and the release of his book, It Happened On the Way to War. In his book, Barcott describes his experiences while working in Kibera, the largest slum in East Africa. While he was there, Barcott said, he learned that "talent is universal, but opportunity is not."
