Painting - Kyle's Oil Paint
Description
Mekatilili wa Menza was born in the Mutara wa Tsatsu Ganze village, Kilifi county, Kenya in the 1840s. Menza's motivation for resistance was led by economic and social-cultural concerns. Menza wanted to prevent any Giriama laborers from being employed by the colonial authorities, in order to ensure that they would remain in Giriama territory and only contribute to the well-being of Giriama people.
Those days women were not in the front in fighting for justice. She’s one of the women who were brave enough to stand and fight for the people. I dare not tell her story here. A lot has been written about Mekatilili wa Menza in many books and recently on the World Wide Web. For sure. The world is not forgetting Mekatilili wa Menza any time soon. The spirit lives on!
