Description

In the last episode of the year, Aileen discusses Bruce McKenzie; Kenya’s ONLY white CS and spy for the British. As we consider what it means to govern, and the sacrifices and compromises that must be struck, McKenzie is a great example of these compromises. And how a single act, can change a nation.

Surprisingly, NO digressions!
