The records the British Empire didn’t want you to see – Audra A. Diptée

Explore the British policy called Operation Legacy, where the government hid incriminating documents from its former colonies. — In 2009, five Kenyan people took a petition to the British Prime Minister. They claimed they endured human rights abuses in the 1950s, while Kenya was under British colonial rule, and demanded reparations. They had no documentary evidence that Britain sanctioned systems of torture— but thousands of secret files were waiting to be discovered. Audra Diptée digs into the Operation Legacy documents.
