A lot of us have different interpretations of "Unstoppable", but
Faisal Saeed Al Mutar, is truly unstoppable on another level. From
surviving the Iraq Civil War, witnessing the murder of his brother,
nearly kidnapped multiple times, to finally becoming a refugee in
the United States, there's no doubt he's an inspiration.
Faisal is the founder of Ideas Beyond Borders, a non-profit that
seeks to empower people living under authoritarian regimes, through
education and knowledge. This is UNSTOPPABLE in a different way
than most of us know.
