Petals of Blood was my primary source for my final thesis in the university . I have revered and honoured Ngugi ever since. Long live this great mind!!
Karuitha II Am eternally greatful my grand dad didnt give me any kaburu names. Tho in primary i got made fun of quite a bit coz i didnt have any so called "english" names. Welcome to the club muthuri.
This so amazing and motivational word of mouth by Prof. Ngungi Wa Wationg'o...I do like his writing arts, he has been an iconic literal writer in Africa
Well spoken professor,your view concerning being proud of our African names has lit my way,adding on this are your refreshing and informative books I have come across :The River Between and Weep Not Child.
I liked it when talked about the land being stolen and taken away, and waiyaki watched rain drops hitting ground like soldiers marking time, and yet carrying away the soil.
I have read two books of Ngugi Wa Thiong'o: The devil on the Cross and the river between. Very interesting and amazing literature icon on this planet earth.
Prof. Ngugi wa thiongo god bless you you have been thru a lot I remember those days that it seemed like moi was living in limuru what a hard time he gave you
In the "River Between" the character Muthon was the victim of the circumstance, she helps the reader to come up with the play within the play stylistic device of the work of Art.
i salute you. howver i would like to get some clarification. Ngugi has a shirt with an Ank decoration this shows he is awakened as he says but what is the meaning of the christian wedding ring on his left finger?
With all your academic you don't seem to recognise we are living in solemn moment that God has sent His angel to place a seal in the forehead of true remnant. The observance of the seventh day Sabbath is the seal of God. You need to wake up from your slumber our beloved icon.

I love his comments as much as his books. He clarifies this in birth of a dream weaver

Ngugi is a real historian
9k views. Should have 900k. Something's wrong with Kenyans.
K Wesley Am not surprised. Kenyans are not known for reading am afraid. On the other hand maybe they watched the interview live😕😕😕
This is so true
9K ON YOU TUBE but the day it was aired millions watched on tv
They watch Churchill
I dont know if any tv reaches a million viewers per show.
OMG! So hard to pronounce his name haha. I've started to read Minutes of Glory. I think it'll be such a good text. :)

i salute you. howver i would like to get some clarification. Ngugi has a shirt with an Ank decoration this shows he is awakened as he says but what is the meaning of the christian wedding ring on his left finger?
Great man in deed..... Western name has vanished.
The irony of using English while talking about this
There is nothing wrong with learning as many languages as possible but it is a shame to learn a foriegn language before learning your own
Benjamin to speak the language of others to do your business is to be admired. On the other had to change your name to fit in makes you a coward ✌🏿✌🏿
@@benjaminnjatha3474 I think it's okay to use English while talking about it because the audience are not only from his community
Great job
There is nothing wrong with learning as many languages as possible but it is a shame to learn a foreign language before learning your own
