What's New

In the Shadow of Death

Shadow of Death

The book, In the Shadow of Death: My trauma, my experience is public testimony on what the majority women went though during  the post-election violence  that engulfed Kenya immediately after the Electoral Commission of Kenya announced the results for the hotly-contested presidential polls of the December 2007 General Election.

The crisis brought to the fore a number of factors that separate our society but for long have been ignored by successive post-independence governments: poverty, land, inequality, tribalism, among others.
