“It is my duty to take the message of revolt to other[s]. is is the only way to liberate the
victims of suering and slavery”, Nazmi Durrani quotes W.L.Sohan in this book.
Resistance to imperialism in pre-independence Kenya by progressive South Asian Kenyans

KENYAN HISTORYactivists and their families.

By NAILA DURRANI
Vipool Kalyani, Editor of the on-line Opinion says: and benegal PEREIRA
Nazmi Durrani has portrayed the people immersed in public life brie�y but rmly. Some
of these names would have remained unknown and hidden, buried under the ashes of
time… He has the knack of using simple, comprehensible words… He never loses sight of
international trends which he uses as the backdrop of these character sketches… I
welcome this volume and salute Nazmudin Durrani for his spirited, vigorous endeavour.
Foreword: Vipool Kalyani e Flambeau Remains.
Preface: Shiraz Durrani Arming People With Revolutionary History.
