Until Everyone Is Free

Less than two years after gaining independence, Kenya began killing its own freedom fighters. The first political assassination happened in 1965. They killed a man who knew what freedom was, and who knew how to get it. This man was Pio Gama Pinto.

“Until Everyone Is Free” is a Sheng podcast about Pinto: socialist, political detainee, and martyr. Host Stoneface Bombaa, producer April Zhu, and reporter Felix Omondi tell the story of a forgotten freedom fighter to answer one important question: How did the country of Kenya become free... without the people of Kenya getting free?
