@MatiriNgemi I’m looooooving Season 3! Thank you for making the stories of our heroes & heroines accessible to us. These stories need to be passed down to every generation so our children know that they come from a strong, proud heritage and are descendants of great warriors 1/2

They are Mûkami Kîmathi, who was laid to rest this past Saturday, and Field-Marshal Mûthoni wa Kîrîma, who was a Mau Mau fighter and attained the rank of FIELD MARSHALL in the movement. Please lean into the story of these great women, our Heroines, to whom we owe so much. 👇🏾
