Description

I heard a very disturbing episode of Radiolab today, looking at British crimes in the 1950s of torturing, raping and murdering thousands of Kenyans. It is hidden history, deliberately erased from our understanding of post-war Britain. Churchill was PM from 1951 to 1955. You can hear Mau Mau here: https://www.wnycstudios.org/podcasts/radiolab/articles/mau-mau Kenya: White Terror, the BBC documentary is on YouTube: https://youtu.be/XV0udfKrzTQ *Warning - graphic descriptions of torture in both the Radiolab episode and BBC documentary* *Contains swearing*
