Visitors arriving at Kenyatta International Airport in Nairobi today might not know that Mau Mau detainees laid the concrete foundation of the runways. Their suffering and their contribution have been deliberately forgotten.

Here are some interesting people I've read about.
James Joseph Dresnok defected from the US to North Korea, one of six U.S. soldiers to defect after the Korean War. He became an actor starring in many NK films. He had kids in NK with a Romanian woman who was kidnapped for him. He also had kids with the daughter of a North Korean woman and a Togolese diplomat. He died in 2016. What a life!
Tipton Three three British citizens from Tipton, England detained and tortured in Guantanamo Bay for 2 years and released without charge. Their lawsuit against the US government was dismissed. Many such cases... Fun fact: Riz Ahmed's film debut was in a movie about this case. Four of the actors in the film including Riz were detained by police on a flight back from a film festival and were accused of being jihadists!
Chen Guangcheng is a blind lawyer who defected from China to the US after the Chinese govt went after him for organizing a lawsuit against the one child policy's enforcement. He spoke at the RNC in 2020. Western media and NGOs love this guy!
Yvonne Ridley a British woman captured by the Taliban who then converted to Islam and goes on speaking tours criticizing Zionism and War on Terror. She has been nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize and has been married five times!
