Very happy to see my latest article published with the Journal of African History, the second in what will be a trilogy of articles on the legacy of Mau Mau and local politics in Central Kenya. In this article, I take a look at the African Independent Pentecostal Church, the religious arm and an inheritor of the tradition of the Kikuyu Independent Schools Association. I explore attempts to resurrect the movement in the aftermath of Kenya’s independence, in the context of efforts among political elites to reconcile post-Mau Mau grievances. Give it a read!
