I Refuse To Die

by Koigi Wa Wamwere, I Refuse To Die Books available in PDF, EPUB, Kindle, Docs and Mobi Format. Download I Refuse To Die books, An extraordinary account of how a laborer's son rose to challenge the power of despots, I Refuse to Die is both the autobiography of one gifted man who rose above the horrors of colonization, and an uncensored history of modern Kenya. The book is infused with the freedom songs of the Kenyan people, as well as dream prophecy and folk tales that are part of Kenya's rich storytelling tradition. Tracing the roots of the Mau Mau rebellion, wa Wamwere follows the evolution and degeneration of Jomo Kenyatta and the rise of Daniel arap Moi. In 1979, wa Wamwere won a seat in the parliament, where he represented the economically depressed Nakuru district for three years. An outspoken activist and journalist, wa Wamwere was framed and detained on three separate instances, spending thirteen years in prison, where he was tortured but not broken. His mother and others led a hunger strike to free him and fellow political prisoners. Their efforts brought about a show trial at which Koigi was sentenced to four more years in prison and "six strokes of the cane," and escaped Kenya—and probably execution—only through the exertions of human rights groups and the government of Norway.

Download Flame The Horse That Refused To Die books, Who Cares — They Are Only Animals The true, shocking story of an animal rescue that took 14 months and the death of three of the characters will show you what Humane Law Officers really go thru. Everyone knows there are laws to protect children, the elderly, the disadvantaged, spouses and even those charged with crimes... But how about animals? Who protects them and what are they protected against? They are only animals. The majority of this story takes place on a 12 acre piece of property that formed a small mountain. Nothing that happened could be seen from any roads. The animals were owned by a hermit who needed help almost as much as they did. If you are interested in animals, suspense or drama and believe that human nature and abuse do not discriminate, you must read what happened. At the end you will read about a few other cases where human nature prevailed when the animal owners also needed help. Each one contains its own intrigue. By the time you are finished, you will learn how animals should be cared for and why they must be protected.
