The Legacy of Slavery in Coastal Kenya: Memory, Identity, and Heritage - Hardcover

by Herman Ogoti Kiriama (Author)

Through analysis of two communities in coastal Kenya, The Legacy of Slavery in Coastal Kenya argues that heritage construction is a discursive and selective process, that the landscape--both physical and mental--is the arena in which this process takes place, and that there are many conflicting and contested views of heritage.
