A man who spent six months behind bars accused of a murder he did not commit has spoken to FRANCE 24 about how he fought to turn his life around. After the case against Kenny Imafidon was dismissed by a judge, he was named the most outstanding Black student in the UK. He's also been named one of 100 young leaders across the globe making a social impact to transform our world. Imafidon is co-founder and managing director of ClearView Research, a leading research company which focuses on young people. He's now documented his life in a book entitled "That Peckham Boy: Growing Up, Getting Out and Giving Back". He joined us for Perspective.
