ARE THERE LESSONS FOR THE WHITES IN RHODESIA FROM THE EXPERIENCE IN KENYA? IT IS FOURTEEN YEARS NOW SINCE KENYA ACHIEVED INDEPENDENCE AND MAJORITY RULE ND EVEN LONGER SINCE MAU-MAU KILLINGS OF WHITE SETTLERS MADE HEADLINES. SO HOW DID THE WHITE KENYANS COME TO TERMS WITH LIVING UNDER THE MAN CONVICTED OF ORGANISING THE MAU-MAU UPRISING? FEAR OF JOMO KENYATTA - AND OF LOSING THEIR WEALTH AND PRIVILEGE - DROVE THOUSANDS OF WHITES FROM KENYA AFTER INDEPENDENCE. BUT TODAY, THERE ARE STILL OVER 40,000 WHITES LIVING THERE, COMPARED TO THE 60,000 IN 1963. FEW ARE KENYAN CITIZENS, BUT EVEN SO, WHITES HAVE A STANDARD OF LIVING THAT FEW COULD HOPE TO ACHIEVE IN ENGLAND. AND ALTHOUGH DISPUTES OVER LAND-OWNERSHIP HAD BEEN THE DRIVING FORCE BEHIND AFRICAN DEMANDS FOR INDEPENDENCE, WHITE FARMERS STILL OWN LARGE ESTATES AND ARE MOSTLY PROTECTED FROM FORCED SALES, ESPECIALLY IF THEY FARM EFFICIENTLY.
