Kenya’s untold history of socialism comes to light in this groundbreaking book by Paul Akello Ogula. The Struggle for Socialism in Kenya recalls the story of the Kenya People’s Union (KPU), a socialist party formed in 1966 and banned just three years later by President Jomo Kenyatta. Despite its short life, KPU represented a powerful, nationwide push for uhuru na ujamaa – freedom and socialism. (Socio-Political/Political History)
