The Rape of the Samburu Women | Short Documentary

For more than fifty years, England has maintained military training facilities in the Samburu region of its former colony, Kenya. During this period, women in the area have faced an epidemic of rape. ➔ Women from the Samburu, Massai, Rendile and Turkana indigenous communities have filed more than 600 official rape claims against British soldiers. Yet, despite documentation of their claims, a three-year internal investigation by the Royal Military Police (RMP) cleared all soldiers of wrongdoing. ➔ Meanwhile, the victims have been shamed and outcast in their communities, many to the point of exile. In the mid-1990s, Beatrice Chili responded to this situation by establishing the village of Senchen, a self-sufficient community run entirely by women. There, women build homes, weave textiles, gather and grow food, and raise children. This short film visits the brave women of Senchen, who speak candidly about their suffering and talk passionately about their demands for justice. 🎥 Director/Producer: Iara Lee - Korean-Brazilian 🇰🇷 🇧🇷 activist filmmaker, world traveler and amateur athlete 🏊🏻‍♀️🏃🏼‍♀️ 🚴🏻‍♀️ INSTAGRAM: @iara_lee ========== ❇️FOLLOW US ON INSTAGRAM - @culturesofresistance or check our website @ad 🔔 SUBSCRIBE to our channel for more
