Description

Explore the history of Kenya through the eyes of those who lived it. This book by Routledge uses rare oral data from women participants in the Mau Mau rebellion to provide a unique perspective on the struggle for independence. It tracks the significant shifts in domestic reproduction, legal status, and gender roles that occurred under colonial rule. Readers will gain a deep understanding of how the rebellion connected labor activism and cultural nationalism to the political realities of the time. The text examines how land alienation, judicial control, and issues of character shaped the lives of Kikuyu women. This work is an essential resource for anyone interested in African history, gender studies, or the social impacts of colonial governance in Kenya.
