It was at Cambridge that I first read Howard Thurman’s/Jesus and the
Disinherited,/and began to ask myself what response my faith could give
me when confronted with the reality that the state did not always act
with benevolence toward its citizens. State-sanctioned murder was the
reality for Black people in the U.S., and it was the reality for me back
in Kenya, where the police have always acted with impunity and without
accountability, and where political forces can always intimidate, bribe,
harass, murder and “disappear” people — as happened with the ICC cases.
