Jomo Kenyatta is important to the movement for independence in Kenya and in anti-colonial resistance in Africa more widely.  He was Prime Minister of Kenya from 1963 to 1964 and then the country's first President from 1964 to 1978. He became the leader of an advocacy group called Kikuyu Central Association (KCA), and published a Kikuyu-language newspaper called Mwigithania that pushed for reforms and he was outspoken in his critique of the colonial policies of the British government. He spent a number of years studying abroad in the UK and the Soviet Union, and then he returned to Kenya and became leader of the Kenya Africa Union. He was arrested and imprisoned for 7 years on allegations he helped to lead the Mau Mau rebellion of 1952 but he always denied involvement.
