Description: Kikuyu Women, the Mau Mau Rebellion and Social Change in Kenya, Paperback by Presley, Cora Ann, ISBN 1580730477, ISBN-13 9781580730471, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US Based on rare oral data from women participants in the "Mau Mau" rebellion, this book chronicles changes in womens domestic reproduction, legal status, and gender roles that took place under colonial rule. This book links labor activism, cultural nationalism, and the more overtly political issues of land alienation, judicial control, and character of the colonial administration in an analysis of the impact of colonial policy on Kikuyu society, and especially its negative consequences for women. Dr. Presley argues that womens involvement in anti-colonial activities began during the World War I era when the state forcibly recruited women into a wage labor system characterized by physical and sexual abuse. Women took part in all facets of the increasingly violent nationalist movement, including serving in the guerrillaarmy.
