Watch a Mau Mau revolutionary explain how he resisted British colonialism, and why the fight isn't over. Maina wa Murigu took up arms against British colonial rule and is still waiting for his land back, more than six decades after independence. Speaking from Nairobi on Kenya's 63rd Madaraka Day, he described fighting British soldiers with machetes, seizing their weapons and retreating into the forests. Madaraka Day, marked every June 1, commemorates the day Kenya achieved self-rule from Britain in 1963. "Our parents died without ever getting justice," he said. "We are soon following them." Britain's response to the uprising was a state of emergency lasting from 1952 to 1959. The Kenya Human Rights Commission estimates 90,000 Kenyans were executed, tortured or maimed. 160,000 were detained. Nazi-style concentration camps held over 1.5 million more. Documents recording the atrocities were later destroyed or hidden by British authorities.
