  1. First of all we are a country of 54+ ethnic groups...we are too busy arguing with each other to start "hating the whites." How we didn't descend into inter-ethnic civil wars and genocides after indipendence is practically a miracle. In fact a majority of our political parties are formed along ethnic lines... tho this is slowly changing from tribal politics to class politics. Most of the MauMau were Kikuyu, whose lands were around Mt Kenya and thus very fertile from the volcanic soil and had easy access to water that trickled down from the mountain so the British settlers snapped up that land and displacing tens or hundreds of thousands of Kikuyus...so the MauMau for the most part just wanted their land back. Tho there were many other groups scattered throughout the county from different ethnicities fighting for their lands, rights and other stuff, the MauMau are the most prominent due to the fact they targetted the most of British interests.

  3. It's safe to say that if the British wanted to wipe us out , they could have. Thanks to World war 2, it became too expensive and too much of a hassle to own colonies. Also back in Britain after people saw the extent of the Weimar republic's brutality, English men began to develop a bad taste in their mouths regarding colonialism. We gained indipendence because Britain allowed us to...TBH...
