In the shadow of death: my trauma, my experience: voices of Kenyan women from post-election violence

In this booklet, Kenyan women share their stories in the wake of the post election violence that engulfed the country after the elections of December 2007.   The crisis brought to the fore a number of factors that separate our society but for long have been ignored by successive post-independence governments: poverty, land, inequality, tribalism, among others.

uses a yum-yum approach by picking major highlights of the crisis based on thematic experiences of women. Such angles include physical abuse, psychological torture, sexual violence, homelessness, widowhood, and economic woes.
