WpIcon32.png Mau Mau Uprising






Bias Obfuscation  The Wikipedia page is replete with details which obscure the bigger picture and biased language to excuse the violent repression of the Kenyan rebels. Indeed, it took the UK government over 50 years to even admit that prisoners were tortured[1], and indiscriminate killing is still unacknowledged after thousands of pages of documents were 'lost'.
