About the Job

Male, late 20s, Black/Ugandan, gay, masculine-presenting. Observant, witty, and fiercely protective. Kito fled Uganda, which has some of the harshest anti-gay laws in the world. There, being gay can mean life in prison or death. He's the one pushing Kenny to look the part. What he isn't telling him: his own case was denied after an officer questioned whether he was really gay. He holds everyone together, though he's the closest to being deported. Requires warmth, restraint, humor, and strong friendship chemistry with Kenny.
