Micere Mugo, teacher and author, died last week, aged 83. We celebrate her life. We celebrate the legacy she has handed on to us.
Micere Mugo stated by her life's choices that Kenya - and Africa - be free of external imperialism and of internal repression. She was a long-time teacher passing to her thousands of students in Kenya, Zimbabwe and the US, a love of beauty of writing and a duty to put both oneself and one's talent at the service of one's country.
