Our ancestors needed visas. VISAS. To move "legally" using specific routes, on specific days, at specific times, ON THEIR VERY OWN LAND. On Their Very Own Land. On. Their. Very. Own. Land.

Suppression of the MauMau was from 1952-1960. Most of our grandparents (born 1920s) were oppressed. Pic is my Grandmother's movement pass. I cannot mourn.

@njokingumi This isn't even ancestors, it's too recent, our grandparents actually lived through this.

@njokingumi @RasnaWarah The whitewashing (pun by mistake) of horrific colonial atrocities, some carried out by black mercenaries, has to be the greatest propaganda achievement of the 20th century.

@njokingumi Africa is still a restricted area for Africans, and the foundation of this restriction is colonial.

@njokingumi β€˜Ancestors’ makes it seem like ancient history. Some pass holders are still around *today*.

@njokingumi Unbeliavable! And 'ancestors' makes it sound like it's hundreds of years ago. It's basically our grandparents and great grandparents!
