I've got a better one, did you know that Kenyatta who ultimately became the president of Kenya, once starred in a film produced by Paul Robeson, in which he played the part of an African Chief. The name of the film was SANDERS OF THE RIVER.

It would ultimately come about that Robeson would persuade Frank Marshall Davis to decamp from Chicago to Hawaii while his associate Richard Wright would accompany Malcolm X to the Bandung Conference in Indonesia in 1955 and also accompany him to the middle east in 1964 where Malcom spent 18 weeks and converted to sunni islam. It's a Small World After All...

Could Kenya’s president Uhuru be our grandson?

Comments: (Ebenezar) As Harry Johnson wrote in one of his books on Peoples of Africa in those days it was an honour for men to share the same woman.

In social anthropology, we call that polyandry and it is common where women are scarce!

[Even though it is (still) common, among some E. African Ethnic groups, for fathers to ‘enter’ their son’s goods on the wedding night!]
