Forthcoming from Edusystems, Nairobi
The book looks at important developments in Kenya from June 2024 when the RutoMustGo and the GenZ resistance took
to the streets. It is a timely book which not only records but analyses the current political situation Kenya. It includes
contributors from some of those active on the streets and records the cultural struggle that has taken the social media by storm.
The book is likely to become a major research and historical tool in the future. It is history in the making, it is a unique record of current events which have relevance not only in Kenya, but Africa as a whole and in the Global South.
The illustrations reproduced in the book tell the story of repression and resistance in their own unique way. They are mostly the work of activists who have created a new way of resisting the oppression from the government.
In From Mau Mau to RutoMustGo, we have a revolutionary book that will help radical parties and social movements in Kenya and beyond to continue to think through the practice of our struggles for a planet we wish to see — Willy Mutunga. This collection of reclaimed, radical historical narratives and strategic lessons offer to organizers and students of liberation, helpful tools for creatively and organically arranging collective resistance and imagining new future — Zach Patterson.
