Continuing from where we left yesterday, it is interesting to note that the settlers sought protection from the colonial government against the African peasants. In Siaya, we read
[ ]The new market position these farmers achieved in the 20s and early 1930s was feared by the European settlers in Kenya, who sought the protection provided by stiff competition and marketing regulations to maintain their domination of these markets.
Free market anyone?

It is truly remarkable how one human being can consciously exploit another human being. This sort of detachment from our common humanity can only be explained through early childhood education.

It’s a process, but yes, it begins early. The only reason we don’t consciously exploit more is that we train ourselves to push certain ideas/facts to the back of our minds.
