Around 70 years ago, a deadly counter-insurgency was carried out by the British colonial occupiers of Kenya to quell the Mau Mau Rebellion. The operation involved political propaganda stoking a panic about the freedom fighters' use of black magic — a "horror story" written by colonizers to justify their own brutal actions. Annie Kelly explores this fascinating historical moment.

Is this the root of the witchcraft accusations of the Marxist Indonesians that were purged?

I'm a simple man. I hear the national baby say 'Djuknow' and 'Mmm' and I smile. Then I listen to the things she's talking about and I frown.

Anybody who likes this episode should check out season 3 of blowback, which is about America's actions in the Korean war, and has a lot of colonialist parallels

"If therefore, we are going to sin, we must sin quietly" Thats a surprising degree of self awareness for a bloody British imperial crook.

Can Annie do her own series just about British colonialism and its horrors, it’s so insane to listen to.
