Seventy-three years ago, Kenya changed forever. The colonial government declared a state of emergency — a move that unleashed mass arrests, brutal crackdowns, and fear across the nation. Operation Jock Scott saw leaders like Jomo Kenyatta arrested, as thousands were detained and silenced.

What followed was The Pipeline — a network of concentration camps and forced villages meant to “rehabilitate” Mau Mau supporters but remembered instead for its cruelty.

This episode uncovers life in Kenya under the state of emergency — a story of pain, resistance, and the unbroken spirit that fueled the fight for freedom.
