Welcome back. A lot of banks were Indian/British-owned since pre-independence days but practically all the biggest banks are owned by indigenous Kenyans since the 2000s.
You can take a walk in Uhuru Park sometime. Still a lot to see outside Nairobi. More beautiful tea farms in Tigoni area (approximately where I grew up actually). Kereita Forest offers zip lining.
Go to Naivasha ~ 60 miles from Nairobi sometime. There's a lake there, Hell's Gate National Park, a wine farm that offers tours (Leleshwa) etc. Also the Geothermal Spa where you can swim in hot water from natural hot springs. The roadside Great Rift Valley viewpoint on the way there is cool.
Too many recommendations to write up but don't leave without on a trip to the coast (Diani/Watamu/Lamu) this time!
Been busy with life stuff but I take a peek at your channel every once in a while.
Thank you for the tips and tuning in🙂
I've never visited Kenya and you have me interested now. It's great to be active and have a routine to exercise. 😆Not hot yoga! I love your dresses. Always enlightening to learn about the traditions of death and naming. Great video and thanks for sharing the journey!
Hey Queen of DC!! Thank you for watching! Lol, girl I dang near passed out in hot yoga. But I kept going and it got a little easier each time. Thank you for the compliments 😊
Kenya's independence constitution was partly written by first US Black Chief Justice Thurgood Marshall who was friends with Kenya Nationalists Jomo Kenyatta, Oginga Odinga and Tom Mboya . Tom Mboya was a Keynote speaker at the March in Washington in 1963 and close friends of Dr. Martin Luther King, Harry Belafonte ,Andrew Young, Sidney Poitier, Ralph Abernathy and other black civil rights leaders .
The Kenyan Nationalists and US Black Civil rights leaders set up resources to help educate Black Kenyans denied higher education opportunities by white before Independence in 1963 .
Hence Obama father to Harvard .
After Harvard where Obama father had studied Phd Economics, he worked with Nationalist Tom Mboya who was Minister Of Economic Planning and was responsible for writing Kenya's post independence Economic framework .
Obama wrote about his father ,Tom Mboya and their Nilotic Luo peoples( same group as Actress LUPITA NYONGO, Ugandan-British actress SHEILA ATIM of WOMAN KING,LRA rebel JOSEPH KONY against Yoweri Museveni in Uganda comprising at least 20 million spread out in 9 territories including Tanzania ,Kenya, Uganda, DRC Congo, Chad, Central Africa Republic, Lower Egypt/Sudan, Ethiopia Gambella/Eritrea) .
Thank you for watching and adding this wealth of information! My tour guide told me about the higher education opportunities after independence. I forgot to mention in the video.

As a guest of US Civil rights Organizer , Charles Cobb Jr. Kenya's Independence VP Oginga Odinga was once arrested in Atlanta while in Atlanta protesting against Black discrimination together with 17 other SNCC students .
This was an embarrassment for the relations between US and Kenya after the state realized that they had locked up Kenya VP . He refused to leave jail until all the black students were released .
His wishes were granted .
In 1963, US first Black Chief Justice, Thurgood Marshall,who was friends with Kenya Nationalists Tom Mboya,Oginga Odinga and Jomo Kenyatta, was responsible for writing part of Kenya's Independence constitution particularly the part on rights of racial minorities including white, Asian/Indian,Arabs etc .
Prior to Kenya Independence 1963 racial segregation in Kenya ,white 1st class citizen, Asian/Indian, Arab second class citizen ,black Kenya 3rd class .
US first Black Chief Justice Thurgood Marshall was disappointed at the post independence polarization between Nationalists leaders President Jomo Kenyatta and VP Oginga Odinga and assassination of Nationalist Tom Mboya in 1960s .
These were his close friends .
US civil rights leader Dr Martin Luther King lost his life in 1968 at age 39 and his close friend Kenya independence Nationalists Tom Mboya lost his life in 1969 at the age of 38 . Both Tom Mboya and Dr Martin Luther King had 4 kids each all below age 13 .
Thank you for dropping these facts!
