In this photo taken Tuesday June 27, 2017, Lionel Fotot, wearing a brown leather jacket and white pants, poses for a photograph with other members of the One Force Hip Hop band in Bangui, Central African Republic. Fotot once watched a crowd kill a 6-year-old Muslim boy with a machete. He can't shake the memories of the brutalities he witnessed as Central African Republic collapsed into sectarian violence. So the young hip hop artist was heartened when his One Force group, comprised of Christians and Muslims, performed to a packed crowd at the largest venue in the capital, the 20,000-seat Barthelemy Boganda Stadium.
