The Unfinished Task of National Liberation

Abstract

Reflecting on the process of national liberation as a struggle against neo-colonialism, Kinuthia Ndung’u draws from Kinyatti’s example and looks at the role of revolutionary petty bourgeoisie intellectuals and students in the struggle against neo-colonial oppression. In today’s Kenya this is a reminder to intellectuals and students that it is their duty to give ideological guidance to the ongoing class debate (hustlers-dynasty) and other struggles everywhere they find themselves.
