The truth about the Trial of Jomo Kenyatta by Rawson Macharia

Kenya’s historiography is very strong on nationalism,and very flippant on societies which “never”‘ strugled for independence. The people who crowd the center- piece of our history?are the rebels – the bandits who wrested land for their communites from the jaws of determined aboriginal communities; the?warriors who resisted the imposition of colonial rule; and the?men of fitino who mobilized the masses to drive the British?away from Kenya in 1963. Our history is very silent on the?”‘owards” and the collaborators who joined, or applauded, the?strangers and the enemies.
