Is real change possible in Kenya? | Inside Story

Kenya is on edge again.
Protests against a finance bill have become a nationwide movement, challenging the foundations of President William Ruto’s government.
Young people are leading the charge -- demanding lower taxes, an end to corruption and a government that listens.
But as the demonstrations intensify, so too has the response.
Dozens of activists and protesters were killed and others simply disappeared.
Can President Ruto quell this rising tide of dissent?
Or is Kenya on the brink of major political change?
